Market Drivers and Barriers, Emerging Technologies, Key Industry Players, and Worldwide Growth Forecasts
After years of neglect, high-voltage transmission systems all over the world are getting much-needed attention. Driven by policy initiatives and a renewed industry focus, significant capital investments are being made to expand and extend transmission grids. Thousands of miles of new transmission lines are being built and existing systems are being retrofitted to add new capacity and greater monitoring capabilities.
Many different forces are driving these developments. In some countries, burgeoning populations and thriving economies are creating increases in electricity demand. Even where demand is relatively flat, renewable energy and the smart grid have created the need for increased transmission capacity and the increased use of phasor measurement units (PMUs), Wide Area Monitoring Systems, and transmission automation. In North America, Europe, and many other regions, cross-border transmission projects are being developed to relieve power shortages and to feed competitive electricity markets. In all of these areas, technological advancements such as High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) and high-temperature superconductors are increasingly being utilized for specialized transmission applications.

Do you really want 2.0 with your intranet?
Do you really want 2.0 with your intranet?
There can be no dispute that 2.0 technologies, such as wikis, blogs, instant messaging, tagging and other social networking tools, have been rapidly adopted by employees in their private lives. They are also increasingly being implemented by organizations for the betterment of the business. While such tools are generally viewed by users in isolation, in an enterprise context they can form a significant part of the organization’s knowledge base. To secure and exploit these information assets in a corporate context there is a requirement for integration with other organization information repositories, such as intranets, to create something which can be labeled as ‘corporate memory’.
Advocates can provide anecdotal benefits of using 2.0 tools, but there are also risks for information governance when reducing controls on the creation and publication of corporate information. The 2.0 movement does precisely that. Moreover, the use of Internet-based tools may potentially add to that as a result of producing unmanaged information flows. For the CIO there is also the conundrum of end users running a “shadow’ information management strategy, with tools being used that fly under the governance radar and establish alternative information access infrastructures that bypass the organization’s official information flow.
