The electrification revolution: Powering the mine of the future
The transition to net-zero is driving unprecedented demand for the critical minerals needed in everything from electric vehicles to wind turbines. Meeting this surging demand is leading the mining industry to a technological revolution of its own – an electrification revolution. Traditionally, mining operations have relied heavily on diesel-powered trucks, excavators, and mobile machinery to […]
Building a Charging Station Management System with AWS
One of the main actors within the EV charging industry are Charging Point Operators (CPOs). CPOs are responsible for managing charging infrastructure availability and associated operational costs. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the global number of installed public charging points was up 40% in 2023 relative to 2022, and growth for fast chargers […]
How energy customers are unlocking the potential of generative AI for Asset Performance Management and methane leak detection
Introduction Industrial Asset Performance Management (APM) has experienced a significant transformation over the past three decades. Organizations are shifting away from rigid, time-based maintenance schedules toward predictive maintenance, which enables them to optimize cost, enhance performance, and mitigate risk by anticipating equipment failures before they occur. Today, energy companies are leading the adoption of new […]
How NOV solved critical oilfield operations using Databricks Data Intelligence Platform
The global demand for oil remains high as it powers transportation, industries, and electricity worldwide. One facet of the energy lifecycle is drilling, where drilling operators face numerous challenges in maintaining consistent oil supply to meet this demand. They must navigate harsh environments using heavy machinery with precision, while controlling costs and risks. Drilling operators […]
Iberdrola reduces incidents at power distribution facilities using AWS IoT and Edge services
Iberdrola is a global leader in electricity generation, distribution, and commercialization, pioneering wind power and renewable energies. i-DE is Iberdrola’s entity responsible for the electric distribution grid in Spain and Portugal, accountable for millions of operational assets with a very heterogenous nature, which makes it challenging to have a live and consolidated view of each […]
Reinventing Energy, Together | AWS Energy Symposium 2024
From the first spark of fire to the harnessing of nuclear power, energy innovation has been the bedrock of human progress. It has illuminated our cities, powered our industries, and propelled us into the space age. Every leap in energy technology has ushered in new eras of possibility, transforming the way we live, work, and […]
Building a generative AI reservoir simulation assistant with Stone Ridge Technology
In the field of reservoir simulation, accurate modeling is paramount for understanding and predicting the behavior of subsurface flow through geological formations. However, the complexities involved in creating, implementing, and optimizing these models often pose significant challenges, even for experienced professionals. Fortunately, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) offers a […]
Improve your industrial operations with cloud-based SCADA systems
Introduction In modern industrial environments, it is common for thousands to millions of data points to be generated every minute. With the increasing use of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in the industrial and energy sectors, the amount of data generated is expected to increase. In the energy and utilities industry, supervisory control and data […]
Addressing grid capacity constraints with GETs
Record renewable energy investment is driving significant growth of low-cost, carbon-free energy in the United States that will help both Amazon and the country meet sustainability goals. Though this investment is a positive step toward a clean energy transition, existing power grid infrastructure lacks enough capacity to quickly connect all this renewable energy generation, resulting […]
Building digital twins with IBM for energy and utilities customers on AWS
“We really need to kick the carbon habit and stop making our energy from burning things. Climate change is also really important. You can wreck one rainforest then move, drain one area of resources and move onto another, but climate change is global.” —Sir David Attenborough Greenhouse gases that are already present in the atmosphere […]
