Prodded by renewables to embrace smart technologies, utilities are discovering ways sensors, data, and connectivity can save them millions of dollars.
Michael Reid, a general manager of technical programs for Duke Energy, said Wednesday the company saved $122.3 million in avoided costs over five years after installing 30,000 sensors in 10,000 pieces of equipment at its power plants. The sensors track temperature, pressure, vibration, and other factors, and applications alert staff to any anomalies.

Smart technologies are getting more intelligent
Artificial intelligence (AI) may not be a new field of technology, but it has recently gained traction. Thanks to rapidly increasing computational power and the rise of Big Data, there are more business cases for smart technologies emerging every day.
While we’re not yet cruising around in self driving cars, one area of AI that is attracting attention is machine learning, where algorithms are being developed that “learn” continually and therefore meet goals faster and more successfully.
