Gearing up to go digital!

The power sector in India is witness to a rapid transformation in technology, and we cannot deny the change that technology has brought to both the industry and our lives. The subjects and issues covered this month, focus on the technologies that continue to disrupt the way we function.

Especially, regarding the power sector, we see the adoption of Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Big data being leveraged to advance the way the industry functions.
