At present day, we are faced with grand challenges on ensuring the cost of energy is affordable for consumers and that there is sufficient supply, as well as balancing policy and regulation to deliver net zero.
These three areas are essential and will be largely enabled by digital technology. In this campaign week we will highlight the opportunities as well as digital applications in the field.
The energy sector is prime for innovation, but we need to get the incentives right to encourage energy system actors to adopt innovative digital approaches into their standard operating practices.
The pace for such measures is crucial to achieve the UK energy targets. It largely means a fourfold increase in energy infrastructure delivery over the next decade, where policy and regulation are recognised as barriers.
