State, national and international policies and corporate strategies addressing climate change are driving the change point that will result in a significant evolution in how electricity will be generated and consumed, how the grid will be managed, what energy services will be offered and by which stakeholders. An underlying attribute of the industry’s response to these drivers is information and communication technology (ICT). ICT in the electric utility industry encompasses the acquisition of data from the field, the movement of data from its source to its final destination, and the conversion of data into actionable information. ICT is foundational to enabling decarbonization, providing grid flexibility and resiliency and is a key aspect of digital transformation. This paper provides a summary of the drivers, three ICT future states necessary for utilities to address the drivers, the EPRI ICT Program strategy for helping to advance members towards the future states, and key past deliverables and accomplishments. INTRODUCTION The electricity sector is nearing an inflection point in the way it operates as we transition to a new energy paradigm. State, national and international policies and corporate strategies addressing climate change are driving the change point that will result in a significant evolution in how electricity will be generated and consumed, how the grid will be managed, what energy services will be offered and by which stakeholders. Additionally, the economic value of grid reliability and resilience will grow significantly as additional sectors such as transportation become more reliant on electricity and the number of extreme weather events resulting from climate change increases. An underlying attribute of all four of these key industry drivers is information and communication technology (ICT). ICT in the electric utility industry encompasses the acquisition of data from the field, the movement of data from its source to its final destination, and the conversion of data into actionable information. ICT is foundational to enabling decarbonization, providing grid flexibility and resiliency and is a key aspect of digital transformation |
