"Outlining the company's core mission, CEO Leonhard Birnbaum said: "Europe needs an intelligent energy infrastructure for sustainable, secure and affordable energy. Here at E.ON, this exactly is our focus. We are investing massively to meet the rapidly growing demand for energy infrastructure. In doing so, we are leading the way where others are hesitating. It is this pioneering role in the energy transition that makes E.ON strong.""
"Energy firm E.ON has announced it is to install a comms infrastructure designed to enhance both security and resilience, aligning with critical infrastructure (Kritis) requirements and increasing the ability to respond quickly to service incidents without interruption. E.ON is one of Europe's largest energy companies, with a 1.6 million-km energy distribution grid and around 47 million customers. The company believes it's playing a leading role in shaping a green, digital and decentralised energy world."
E.ON will install a communications infrastructure to enhance security and resilience, meeting critical infrastructure (Kritis) requirements and enabling faster, uninterrupted incident response. The company operates a 1.6-million-km distribution grid serving about 47 million customers and connects roughly 1.4 million renewable energy plants, making communications performance and flexibility essential. A network renewal based on Nokia technology will begin across Germany to create an optimised, highly automated telecommunications network for distribution system operators, potentially serving as a model for other affiliates. E.ON signed a five-year strategic deal with Nokia to leverage network technology and chipsets expected to cut IP and optical energy consumption by up to 50%.
