Rethinking How We Monitor the Grid - From Data to Insight

Power grids worldwide are facing increasing demands for capacity, flexibility, and resilience, often with limited resources and aging infrastructure. At the same time, accelerating the energy transition requires smarter, data-driven approaches to grid operation and planning.

This session will present a sensor less Digital Twin approach for transmission and distribution systems. Built entirely on software and existing utility data, the solution enables real-time, historical, and forecasted monitoring and optimization of critical assets, without the need for hardware installation or on-site intervention.

Through practical examples and field results, we will explore how this method supports dynamic line rating, vegetation management, and asset life extension, offering a scalable and cost-effective pathway toward more efficient and adaptive grid operations.
