Smart Grid Heavy Hitters series – Landis+Gyr President and COO Andreas Umbach

This is the fourth of my Smart Grid Heavy Hitters’ interviews, and in it I talked to the President and COO of Landis+Gyr, Andreas Umbach. Landis+Gyr have been in the meter business for decades now so I was very interested to hear what Andreas had to say.

It was a great chat, we talked about:

• Andreas’ and Landis+Gyr’s definition and the benefits of a Smart Grid
• The differences in smart grid rollouts around the world and
• Demand response programs which are consumer friendly
