The what and why of technology transfer: Redefining success to meet today’s challenges

In our previous research into utility technology-transfer efforts, we’ve focused on the problems and what doesn’t work. We described how difficult it can be for utilities to innovate at the pace necessary to keep up with modern challenges. For our current research, we’re expanding on these concepts to consider what technologies are coming next and why any technology should be promoted in the first place. From this perspective, we outline viable solutions to the challenges of technology transfer.

You’ll learn:

  • How innovative technologies evolve and enter the market
  • How utilities are fostering innovative tech transfer within their companies
  • How you can get involved with tech-transfer cooperatives in your region
