The Utilities Technology Council (UTC) and the 450 MHz Alliance are pleased to announce a strategic partnership aimed at enhancing communication networks for utilities and critical infrastructure providers. This collaboration leverages the expertise and resources of both organizations to support the development and deployment of advanced wireless communication solutions, ensuring reliable and secure connectivity for utilities worldwide.
The partnership between UTC, a global association dedicated to serving critical infrastructure and utility stakeholders, and the 450 MHz Alliance, which focuses on promoting the use of 450 MHz spectrum for private and secure communication networks, represents a significant step forward in the evolution of utility communication systems. Together, these organizations will work to promote the adoption of 450 MHz spectrum, which is well-suited for wide-area coverage and robust, mission-critical communication requirements.
“We are excited to partner with the 450 MHz Alliance to drive innovation in utility communications,” said Rusty Williams, President and CEO of UTC. “Our members rely on robust and secure communication networks to maintain critical infrastructure operations. This partnership will provide them with access to cutting-edge solutions and support the deployment of technologies that meet their unique needs.”
Gösta Kallner, Executive Chairman of the 450 MHz Alliance, added, “Partnering with UTC aligns perfectly with our mission to advocate for the use of the 450 MHz band in delivering secure and reliable communication for utilities. By working together, we can facilitate the exchange of knowledge and best practices, driving forward the development of future-proof communication systems that are essential for utility operations.”
As part of this partnership, UTC and the 450 MHz Alliance will collaborate on a range of initiatives, including joint research projects, workshops, and advocacy efforts to support regulatory and standardization processes. These efforts aim to address the growing demand for resilient communication solutions that can support smart grid applications, remote monitoring, and emergency response.
