Building blocks for a resilient energy future: the IoT in energy operations

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming energy operations globally through the incorporation of advanced technologies such as real-time monitoring, predictive analytics and automation. By optimising energy consumption, minimising waste and facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources, these modernising innovations are enhancing operational efficiency and sustainability while reducing costs. Hyperconnected infrastructure, which includes smart grids and smart metering, will prove pivotal in the ongoing transition from traditional energy management towards more efficient, data-driven systems. As these technologies continue to evolve, they will no doubt play a crucial role in shaping a resilient, low-carbon energy future.
