Smart Grid

Integrating the hardware, software, and business processes to deliver the benefits of a secure smart grid requires a special set of capabilities. SAIC delivers end-to-end solutions by developing a practical implementation plan and integration strategy that help utilities get the most out of their people, processes, and existing technology.

Delivering a Smarter Grid Choice

At SAIC, we view the smart grid as a transformed and integrated electrical transmission and distribution network that integrates robust two-way communications, advanced sensing technology, and distributed computing technology to improve the efficiency and reliability of power delivery and use. Because of its scale and complexity, evolution to the smart grid requires careful planning and the active collaboration of utilities, technology suppliers, investors, and end users. SAIC guides practical smart grid technology deployments - every step of the way. We were among the first to champion the integrated application of advanced transmission and distribution technologies for a modernized grid. Our deep bench of expertise helps utilities efficiently think, build, and operate the smart grid.
