Electric power systems are in the midst of massive change and are about to become vastly more complex. Distribution networks will rely more on grid-connected and unpredictable renewable resources, energy storage and microgrids. The growth in electric vehicles and building electrification already is adding new variables to grid operations and asset management.
Utilities need help seeing into the near future of the power grid. They’ll need the tools for automatic, super-targeted grid control exactly when it’s needed. And they’ll require fast models of what is happening with the grid—from the whole system to the most minute local detail.
By adding a layer of artificial intelligence to their existing technology, utilities can be better prepared for extreme temperatures, severe weather and sudden surges and drops in supply and demand. In this playbook, learn how:
