Digital society is undoubtedly advancing as quarantining and social distancing become the norm. With these changes, there is a greater demand for energy, a vital resource.
Energy producers and utilities face a variety of challenges including changing economic, regulatory and supply and demand policies. In addition, the demand to expand into renewable energy is increasing. Energy companies need end-to-end visibility and real-time insights to explore innovative manufacturing technologies and energy sources, achieve greater efficiencies and reduce risks to overcome these concerns.
There are many instances of usage where digital technologies make energy smarter and more efficient. For example, smart metering for water and electricity leverage digital technology to support a two-way flow of energy and information for supply and charge forecasting, consumption monitoring and distributed generation sources management.
For a more precise usage monitoring and competitive pricing, smart meters will automatically send readings in real time or near real time. Embedded sensors also allow for failure warnings and monitoring of the power quality and for leaks, as well as two-way communications for remote services such as service disconnections or time-based pricing. Smart meters are the endpoint tools that facilitate communication wirelessly between utilities and consumers, energy suppliers and service providers in Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI).
