Driving efficiency and sustainability in the energy sector
Technology has always played a key role in the energy sector. The current energy crisis has only accelerated the process of technological innovation. Nevertheless, there are still challenges to be overcome, such as the lack of energy efficiency, the integration of renewable sources and the lack of real-time visibility and control.
With regard to the lack of energy efficiency, many electricity grids are still inefficient, which often results in energy losses during transmission and distribution. This leads to wasted energy and higher costs for consumers. In addition, the efficient integration of renewable energy sources into existing electricity grids is a significant challenge to overcome.
Another crucial issue is the lack of real-time visibility and control in power grids. Real-time monitoring capacity is often limited, which makes it difficult to quickly detect and resolve faults or security issues.
In this context, edge-to-cloud solutions are gaining importance with the Smart Grid concept. Continuous computing makes it possible to reduce network access times and minimize energy consumption. In addition, these solutions offer data security, integrity and resource sharing.
The implementation of an efficient CI/CD-based pipeline also brings significant benefits to the energy sector. This approach speeds up the development and implementation of new solutions, increasing the operational efficiency and reliability of energy systems. Automating processes reduces the possibility of human error and facilitates the implementation of consistent safety practices at all stages of development.
The proliferation of 5G represents a new opportunity for the management of critical systems in the energy sector. The adoption of 5G enables significant energy efficiency gains in the acquisition and operation of energy.
The DNS testbed offers companies the chance to test and experiment with innovative ideas for real-time monitoring of power grids, grid automation, the development of communication networks for smart grids, energy management systems for smart grids and the implementation of an efficient CI/CD-based pipeline.
Take advantage of this opportunity and join the transformation of the energy sector.
