Fast-moving developments within the energy sphere mean companies looking to stay ahead of the curve must digitalise .
Over the coming decades , digital technologies will make energy systems more connected , intelligent , efficient , reliable and sustainable as the technological transition from analogue to digital advances . Information and communication technologies ( ICT ), modern sensors , big data and artificial intelligence are some of the technologies that can help us find ways to decarbonise our energy systems and improve how we use energy .
This is exactly what we delve deeper into within the June issue of Energy , hearing from industry leaders on issues pertaining to digital transformation , smart grids , IoT , AI and machine learning , as well as the future of energy storage and batteries .
Perhaps summed up best by Thermo Fisher Scientific ’ s Tareq W . Alnajjar , who explained to me this month that digital transformation in the energy sector is no longer an innovative vision but a strategic imperative .
