How the latest headset technology is powering up the utilities sector

From the volatile cost of energy to potential summer water shortages, the utilities industry remains the driving force behind business and personal daily life.

In a fast-moving and increasingly competitive sector, clear communication counts where the latest headset technologies help continually enhance the customer experience.

From traditional contact centres to more dynamic open plan offices, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is inspiring smarter working, greater productivity and higher levels of customer engagement and overall satisfaction. Mobility matters too in a world of hybrid working for some professionals, using the latest unified communication tools to stay in touch wherever they are working, at home or in the office. Discover why EPOS is the energy behind the headset market.

Adding more fuel to the fire

EPOS works with many leading players and understands what makes a great call experience in today’s increasingly omnichannel world, where many different communication methods are used to engage with customers and internal colleagues, from payments to urgent emergencies such as a burst pipe.

A high quality headset is on the frontline and has to perform. Call quality, noise cancelling capabilities, multiple connectivity, voice pickup and mic quality are some of the key components required in what are often busy and challenging environments. The use of AI represents a new chapter in our continual pursuit of audio excellence.

Our ultra-lightweight devices deliver all-day comfort whilst cutting edge Active Noise Cancellation ensures optimum call quality with less background distractions. Microsoft Teams certification provides credibility and confidence, backed by the highest build quality for maximum reliability.

AI game-changer

At EPOS, we strive to be at the forefront of what is technically possible. That’s why we are delighted to introduce our latest technological breakthrough and an industry first: EPOS AI™.

AI is quickly changing the way we live. We have seen it moving into our daily lives. Take for example personal assistants that, by using machine learning and AI, can predict our actions and get smarter by doing so. It is no surprise that we can observe the same developments at work, especially as we become more mobile, versatile, and flexible.

What is EPOS AI™?

Developed by a team of EPOS engineers, EPOS AI™ is a tiny but powerful network that can separate human voices from other extraneous sounds. Using deep learning in a sophisticated sound laboratory, EPOS engineers have enabled EPOS AI™ to “learn”.

The future of AI

We realise we have barely scratched the surface of the vast potential AI offers. We look forward to creating technologies that help make lives richer, more productive, and more enjoyable for years to come. Exciting new developments are ahead.

For today, tomorrow & the future

EPOS is built on optimising the audio experience on both sides of a call. Staying ahead of the competition doesn’t happen by chance, as we continue to push the boundaries of innovation.

Superb audio and voice clarity optimises focus, boosts efficiency, and increases productivity all day, every day. Exceptional build quality maximises reliability for some of the lowest return rates anywhere in the industry.

From Bluetooth to beamforming mics and the arrival of AI-inspired advancements, EPOS headsets are built to stand the test of time and deliver an ever brighter future for Utilities organisations across the world to make the most out of their wider technology investments.


Did you know that while we hear with our ears, we listen with our brain?


At EPOS we put this principle at the heart of our product design process, an approach we call EPOS BrainAdapt™. EPOS BrainAdapt™ is a group of pioneering technologies that work together to improve cognitive performance. Solutions built on EPOS BrainAdapt™ technology minimises the amount of energy it takes your brain to process sound, leading to better performance and improved communication day-after-day.
