Why collaboration is key to remaining resilient in our electric future
National Grid Electricity Transmission prides itself on providing services safely and reliably, whilst remaining resilient to external factors that could disrupt business activities. As the UK energy landscape changes – with greater cross–sector interdependence and evolving user expectations, how will we ensure that our electricity infrastructure remains resilient in the future? By working collaboratively across businesses, the electricity sector, and other sectors to define, measure, and address resilience.
Utility 3.0: Japan's Utility of the Future
Five megatrends (5Ds) will bring about changes to the Japanese power/energy business. These changes are inevitable and irreversible. We call them the 5Ds and they are:
- Deregulation
- Decentralization
- Decarbonization
- Digitilization
- Depopulation
Depopulation is the trend that Japan will likely face earlier than the rest of the world, while the other 4Ds are global megatrends.
Hydrogen, Power to Gas (P2G) and Gas to Power (G2P): Interesting technologies which need additional R&D and analyses within a system approach
Hydrogen scalable production for a sustainable and breathable world
One important outcome from the 4.0 Industrial Thinking era brings up systems-to-systems approach integration, embracing cyber-physical systems (CPS), the internet of things (IoT), industrial internet of things (IIoT), cognitive computing and artificial intelligence. If a single key word could epitomize what we are facing, it would be the Market Transformation era.
