IMPACT OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES ON THE TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SECTOR

 In more than a century, electrical transmission and distribution (T&D) have progressed step by step. The present usage of digital technology in the construction, maintenance, and monitoring of T&D lines opens up a lot of possibilities for building more cost-effective, efficient, and dependable lines. With the rise of numerous technologies such as Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence (AI), IoT, Big Data analytics, and others, we are also on the cusp of a shift in the digitalization of energy systems.

Regulatory limits, policy changes, changing economics, technology, and consumer preferences are all constants in the power utility sector.

To compete in this market, utilities must ensure continuous power supply through efficient load distribution and minimize downtime through timely repair.

As a result, technological advancements like machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence are rapidly infiltrating the power distribution industry. Battery storage and the internet of things, among other developments, have the potential to alter the power industry soon.

Major Highlights in the Industry

  • AMI enables the collection of near-real-time usage data from customers, as well as data analysis and control services like time-based tariffs and demand response. Sensors and embedded software are also being added to the grid, as well as two-way communication and software platforms that enable distribution automation monitoring and control, fault and outage management, VoltVAR management, and real-time optimization of distributed energy resources (DERs).
  • CenterPoint Energy, based in the hurricane-prone Houston area, is an excellent example of a utility taking measures to become a digital organization. An advanced metering system, an advanced distribution management system (ADMS), DSCADA, a mobile data platform, a power alert service system, an integrated voice response (IVR) system, and a Customer Vision Platform have all been deployed by the company. These systems not only improve system performance but also improve the relationship between CenterPoint and its clients.
  • Similarly, Portland General Electric (PGE) began a smart grid test program this summer to show the utility's smart grid's potential for demand response and other customer-focused programs by integrating digitally equipped items owned by customers. Digital businesses have the advantage of supplying a large number of clients while still providing personalized service.

E-HEALTH: THE BOOM IN DIGITAL HEALTH TO DUISRUPT LIFE SCIENCES AND MEDICAL COMMUNITY

  E-Health is an developing field in the intersection of public health, medical informatics, and business, mentioning to health services and data delivered or enhanced through the Internet and connected technologies. In the broader sense, the term characterizes a technical development and a state of mind, a way of thinking, an attitude, and a commitment for networked, global review, to recover health care locally, regionally, and globally by using information and communication technology. The 5 e's in "E-Health" Efficiency  - one of the promises of e-health is to increase efficiency in health care, thereby decreasing costs. One possible way of reducing costs would be by avoiding duplicative or unnecessary diagnostic or therapeutic interventions through enhanced communication possibilities between health care establishments and patient involvement. Enhancing quality  of care - increasing efficiency involves not only reducing costs but at the same time improving quality. E-

HYDROGEN STORAGE - A DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION

  Excessive expectations have been met with disappointment in the past with hydrogen technologies. Nonetheless, a rising body of research suggests that these technologies are a viable choice for deep decarbonization of global energy systems, with recent cost and performance advances pointing to economic viability. The cost of producing, transporting, and storing hydrogen has decreased dramatically. This is complemented by an increase in clean technology regulations. As a result, we predict that hydrogen technology will gain traction, particularly in the transportation and alternative energy generation sectors. The transition to a sustainable energy economy needs an energy carrier capable of large-scale carbon-free energy transfers. Hydrogen is a sustainable energy carrier with the potential to benefit the whole energy sector. However, storing significant amounts of hydrogen is difficult. There are numerous obstacles to overcome in order to achieve a cost-effective hydrogen cycle. Hydro
