Wildfires are becoming an increasing threat to utility infrastructure, particularly in remote and unmanned areas. Rising heat, drought, and winds are driving more frequent and severe events, especially in the Western U.S., making early detection and swift response essential.
In this webinar, Jenifer Hones from FLIR and Steve Sinclair from Convergint discuss how utilities are addressing these challenges with advanced thermal detection technologies. FLIR’s thermal imaging solutions are designed to identify heat anomalies before they escalate into larger threats. In collaboration with FLIR, Convergint supports the integration of these technologies into operational and security strategies tailored to the specific needs of utility infrastructure.
Incorporating thermal imaging into these strategies, enhance situational awareness, proactively manage fire risks, and improve asset protection for utilities. As wildfire threats continue to rise, utilities are adopting these advanced technologies to monitor environmental changes and reinforce infrastructure resilience. Through partnerships with technology providers like FLIR, Convergint helps organizations integrate these tools into broader risk management strategies.

Effective security and safety is a multi-layered approach involving people, processes, and technologies. Convergint-provided products and services are only one part of this multi-layered approach, will not detect or prevent all threats or solve every risk, and should not be your sole method of security or safety. Please see the “IMPORTANT PRODUCT SAFETY AND SERVICE INFORMATION” documentation, available at convergint.com/terms, prior to using a Convergint-installed system.
