๐Ž๐๐ˆ๐๐ˆ๐Ž๐ | Electricity demand is expected to grow by 3.6% annually to 2030, around 50% faster than the previous decadeโ€™s average. Yet many grids are nearing or exceeding their 40-year design life, leaving utilities to manage rising demand, ageing assets, extreme weather and increasingly complex energy flows.

AVEVAโ€™s Gary Wong argues that investment alone will not be enough. He explores how reinvention, reallocation and radical collaboration can help utilities unlock more value from operational data, ease pressure during peak demand and strengthen returns across increasingly connected power systems.
