Summer Moved On - Where are we heading next?
“Summer Moved On” is a pop song and hit single from Norwegian band A-ha. The lyrics are all about change. Sudden changes. We all know that change will happen sooner or later, but still we get surprised when they actually occur.
Sounds like a perfect song to describe the utilities’ industry, right?
Changes that hit the Energy Systems
We had a great summer and we hope you did too. But summer moved on. We have seen a great deal of changes, innovations and disruptions happening to the energy system around the world.
Asian Utility Week in Kuala Lumpur
We recently exhibited in KL during Asian Utility Week to showcase how our Big Data iPaaS Utilihive can boost Asian utilities towards a digital future. We were thrilled to see the focus and growing investments to drive the transition towards the digital platformed utility. We spoke about the urgency of an Agile Digital Mindset and discussed with utilities strategies to build a Digital DNA to stay competitive.
European and North American Utilities
And we have started some exciting activities with our clients and partners in North America and Europe to create innovative but data hungry energy services leveraging the vast amount of data available.
From "Why" to "How"
However, one of the most promising signs we are seeing in the market that we are extremely excited about is the shift from the “why” to “how”. Because Summer moved on. The energy system is changing right now, and utilities are expressing a desire to take steps towards a digital future where they can adapt quickly to changes in the market.
European Utility Week in Paris
We are all looking forward to meeting many of you; our clients, partners and colleagues in Paris during European Utility Week 2019 where we will show new innovations and share client experiences!
It's gonna be quite buzzing at our booth M122, so pick your time-slot already now!
