Smarter Grid Maintenance: Centralised Monitoring for Utilities Under Pressure

The energy transition is raising demands on T&D networks while utilities face skills shortages, ageing assets and growing regulatory expectations. Fragmented or paper-based inspection processes can no longer keep up. This session explores how a centralised condition monitoring platform such as Assetlink helps utilities modernise maintenance: standardising workflows for in-house crews and contractors, combining data from multiple sensors and sites, and giving asset managers real-time visibility of network condition. We discuss how this improves efficiency and control, captures expert knowledge in digital processes and builds the foundation for predictive, data-driven maintenance.
