Looking forward to having our Associate Member Ampjack Industries Ltd. discuss the advantages of its new ExoGrid technology at our next WIRES Tech Talk on Fri., Nov. 22 at 10am ET. ExoGrid helps transform current infrastructure by utilizing existing tower locations and Right-of-Ways (ROWs). It enables the rapid expansion of transmission capacity, with minimal environmental impact and reduced regulatory hurdles. Luke Chaput, Nathan Stahl and Mike Haight, MBA will discuss how this unique technology delivers valuable versatility, allowing for existing transmission tower locations to be utilized to create new, and unique structural improvements to bring additional circuits, harden existing infrastructure, or convert existing towers for new uses, all while staying within the existing ROW.
