DistribuTECH Europe 2000

This year's European edition of the DistribuTECH conference was held in Vienna, Austria, on October 10 through 12. GE Smallworld was prepared, armed with product experts, partners, planned demonstrations, large display screens, and demo pods. Presentations on Distribution Management System (PowerOn) and Design Manager alternated throughout each day. SIAS and Transmission Grid Manager demos were also given on a more private basis. GE Smallworld partners Grintec, Sofion, and MGIS had demo pods within our booth, ready to display their solutions. The conference focused on utility automation solutions, with about 50% of the conference booths representing power mechanical or field collection products, and the remaining booths showcasing GIS vendors, data conversion vendors, industry analysis companies, and GIS solutions providers.
