How can energy & utilities tap their full potential?

But as these organizations grapple with growing demand, erratic temperatures, aging infrastructure, and the threat of cyberattacks, many struggle to maintain a high level of service in an uncertain and unpredictable landscape. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), as powered by big data, have the potential to modernize energy and utilities organizations by identifying ways to reduce waste and redundancy, protect and manage assets, and detect performance anomalies – all while realizing valuable cost savings, both for the organization and the customer. In this blog, we explore the three main areas where AI is making a mark on the energy and utilities sector today and how such investments may impact the future. Each year in the U.S. alone, trillions of gallons of water are lost due to aging pipes, broken water mains, and faulty meters. Replacing the entire system would be massively expensive, time-consuming, and impractical, which means that utility companies must take a localized approach to repairs.
