According to new research from IDC Energy Insights, there is a “sure bet” for utilities that are overwhelmed with the options. “Multiple managed services are emerging into the market to serve the needs of utilities. The challenge is to make managed services a win-win proposition for utilities and the providers of services,” said Jill Feblowitz, vice president of IDC Energy Insights, in a statement.
