Trending Topics from the Industry
The energy sector for 2023 will be characterized by key trends that will shape the industry and drive transformation such as decentralization, digitalization, demand flexibility, more sustainable electricity production, and the ongoing process of market liberalization.
As a matter of fact, 2022 has deeply marked the energy sector, especially following the crisis triggered by the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the consequent increase in prices, which represented a further boost for the development of renewable energy.
For a more sustainable future, it will be crucial that both companies and individuals concretely reduce CO2 emissions. In fact, a more conscious and sustainable use of energy is a fundamental step for energy transformation: energy operators play a crucial role in promoting the widespread adoption of renewable energy sources and facilitating the implementation of processes and technologies that maximize the potential of alternative sources and innovative models for energy distribution.
Managing a complex energy model, which involves varying levels of energy demand and supply, requires effective digital management. However, the utilities sector faces a double challenge: on the one hand, the push to digitize networks and keep up with the evolving energy landscape, on the other hand, the need to enhance the existing infrastructure to provide necessary support for the digital transformation efforts.
The sector is therefore facing a critical period of transition, which in 2023 will become even more stringent.
In a context in which it is necessary to know how to renew service models despite non-cutting-edge infrastructures, digitalization can be seen also as a key to success.
