RS Poles Presents a Technical Symposium on Composite Utility Poles

Aug 20

Our friends at RS Poles are hosting a symposium on composite utility poles, and we're here to spread the word.

Planned for those who make grid resiliency decisions for their organizations, the Resilient Structures Technical Symposium gathers industry experts from utilities to discuss the challenges and solutions for grid resiliency with composite poles. As frequent and severe extreme weather events collide with aging infrastructure, utility customers are experiencing more frequent service interruptions while also facing rapidly rising rates.

Resilient Structures composite poles provide significant resiliency and reliability benefits compared to traditional pole materials. However, this solution is often perceived as expensive and novel. This technical symposium will explore how utilities have deployed composite poles for grid hardening, and dive deeper into questions utilities are confronted with as they evaluate future utility investments in such solutions.
