The traditional utility business model of a pure-play centralised power producer and provider will soon be extinct. Distributed generation (DG) will increasingly feature in new utility value propositions as utilities try to capture more downstream opportunities. These will include several models, from an aggregator of DG to providing complete energ...

Public and private sector investment in renewable energy, mainly solar PV and wind, is increasing in response to the need to reduce carbon emissions and dependency on fossil fuels. However, the intermittent nature of renewables requires investment in complementary grid support solutions. Battery energy storage solutions provide stability for the gr...

Although much of the focus on grid investment relates to hardware, there is a growing awareness of how important it is to increase the overall intelligence of the grid. Frost & Sullivan s Digital Grid Attractiveness Index analyzes and ranks countries based on how attractive they are for digital grid developments in terms of implementing improvement...

Utilities are entering a phase of selective, use-case-driven investment in meter data management (MDM), where funding is tied to measurable operational and commercial outcomes rather than platform modernization alone. The most consistent priorities in which utilities are willing to invest include interval and complex billing/settlement, outage data...

Grid-Scale energy storage solutions involve electrochemical storage such as batteries, supercapacitors, electromechanical storage solutions such as flywheels, compressed air energy storage and thermal energy storage solutions like molten salt and ice energy storage. These storage solutions are used to support grid stability and predominantly the in...

The energy industry, which has traditionally been highly stable, is currently undergoing a drastic transformation. A number of disrupting elements, including the digitisation of electricity networks and products, deregulation, increased competition from new entrants, decreasing demand, a shift to cleaner energy sources, changes in consumption patte...

The energy sector is shifting to sustainable and green resources; as a result, the share of renewables in the power generation mix is rising. However, this presents another challenge for the power industry; renewable sources are intermittent, which pressurizes the power transmission and distribution (T&D) industry to maintain power supply in line w...
