40% – INCREASE IN CYBER ATTACKS AGAINST THE ENERGY SECTOR

$10 BILLION – IMPACT OF THE LARGEST BLACKOUT IN NE U.S.

67% – COMPANIES WITH ONE OR MORE COMPRISING SECURITY CAUSING THE DISRUPTION

78% – LIKELY ATTACK ON SCADA OR ICS SYSTEMS IN THE NEXT 24 MONTHS

More and more consumers are embracing green technologies like solar panels and electric cars. Beyond renewables, our online experience makes it easy to switch energy providers with just a click. In less than five years, 20 percent of electric energy must be renewable for U.S. government agencies, the country’s largest consumer. Utilities that don’t comply will pay serious fines. The frequency and severity of droughts, heat waves, storms and natural disasters are creating additional challenges.

That’s why mission-critical communications are imperative. The ASTRO® 25 radio network is equipped to handle the full scope of daily operations and unimaginable disasters. It empowers utilities with greater safety and efficiency, while delivering the continuity of service customers expect.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread in the United States and across the globe, we want to let everyone know that Communications Electronics’number one priority is to keep our employees, partners, and customers safe. Here is an update on preparations and steps we have taken to date. Two weeks ago, CE assembled a cross-disciplinary COVID-19 Management Team to actively monitor the situation and make recommendations to leadership. We have been assessing the situation daily, remaining vigilant, and following recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and local authorities. We’ve assembled guidance for our employee teams, pursuant to these recommendations.

As you know, the situation is evolving rapidly, and COVID-19 is affecting people differently, depending on their location and situation. As a result, flexible solutions are needed. CE Senior Management is considering all options, including the possibility of asking staff to work remotely.

While we remain focused on the health and safety of our staff and those around us, we also remain committed to serving our customers. Fortunately, we have technology in place and significant experience with working remotely. We have been working hard behind the scenes to ensure we can continue to deliver uninterrupted, high quality service. Operational teams have been working to identify potential needs and strategies associated with full-virtual delivery of services. Project managers and supervisors are actively having preparedness discussions with our teams. Our IT team has been reviewing and testing systems and protocols, to ensure necessary tools and support for staff to operate virtually. Everyone has a role to play.

If you have questions or feedback, you can reach the COVID-19 Management Team at Safety@Talkcei.com.

Being flexible and able to overcome big challenges is part of what makes us who we are. We have the infrastructure, skills, and desire to support each other, while providing the highest level of service to our customers. Obviously, this is a fast moving, fluid situation affecting our country and the world. We will update our guidance and decisions as the situation changes. Please continue to monitor the CDC Website for updates.

We hope that you and your family are well,
