For any distribution network operator (DNO), customer service and satisfaction are priorities. If there is an outage or failure, they want to seem responsive – giving timely updates and information on the resolution. To do that, they are investing in new technologies to improve the design, operation and maintenance of distribution networks everywhere.

We’re often told that energy data is valuable. Less often discussed is the fact that handling data can be risky. But just as not all data is equally valuable, some types of data are riskier than others. The trick is to maximise value while minimising risk.
Data: maximising value, minimising risk Read More »
