The Networked Grid 2012 is Greentech Media's 4th annual two-day smart grid summit covering today's market realities and trends going forward, as they shape next generation smart grid infrastructure and applications. This year's conference will feature our highest quality speaker line-up and audience to date, as we plan to cap the audience size and limit attendance to only the industry's top executives and thought leaders from global utilities, innovative vendors and top press and analysts.
