Accelerating Digital Substation Deployment in MEA
From IEC 61850 Infrastructure to Software-Defined Protection
Transforming Substations for the Future Grid
As renewable energy penetration accelerates and distribution grids evolve from passive networks to active orchestration platforms, substations must become intelligent, flexible, and software-defined. Join Advantech and Startech for an in-depth technical webinar exploring proven IEC 61850-compliant solutions that enable the DNO-to-DSO transition across the Middle East and Africa.
Discover how leading utilities are modernizing substation infrastructure to:
✓Deploy deterministic, low-latency communication networks
using IEC 61850-3 certified Ethernet switches for mission-critical protection signaling
✓Transition from hardware-defined to software-defined substations
with virtualized protection and control functions
✓Manage bidirectional power flows
and real-time operational intelligence at the distribution edge
✓Meet regional compliance requirements
including IEC 61850, IEC 62351 cybersecurity, and environmental standards for MEA climates
