Cost of Manual Work — Electric Utilities

See what repetitive manual work is costing Electric Utilities teams each year — where grid modernization investment is climbing fast — AMI, DERMS, ADMS, and grid-edge sensor deployment are rate-base-heavy and operationally complex.

What this means for Electric Utilities

  • Grid modernization investment is climbing fast — AMI, DERMS, ADMS, and grid-edge sensor deployment are rate-base-heavy and operationally complex.
  • Distributed energy resources (rooftop solar, batteries, EV charging) are reshaping load patterns at the distribution edge faster than legacy planning tools can absorb.
  • EV adoption is creating concentrated demand growth that forces real distribution-system upgrades, not just generation planning.

Where it pays to act

  • AI-driven asset health and predictive maintenance on distribution and transmission assets to compress reliability impact.
  • Wildfire risk modeling, vegetation-management prioritization, and PSPS (public safety power shutoff) operating-model support.
