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 […]

Per a recent study from IoT World Analytics, more than 70% of respondents listed managing different data formats and industrial protocols as inhibiting them from scaling their smart factory initiatives.  The data pipeline between industrial (OT) , IT, and the cloud requires many integrated systems to create a unified data foundation, often leading to longer […]

Smart Manufacturing enables organizations to accumulate vast amounts of data from factory systems and operations. However, this data is often siloed across multiple formats and systems, making it challenging to extract meaningful insights to improve operational efficiency. Furthermore, as the experienced workforce retires, the vast knowledge about troubleshooting and resolving production issues is being lost. […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Introduction With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), enterprises aim to efficiently integrate, configure, monitor, and manage numerous edge devices. These devices and server systems must be highly secure and reliable, as they often become targets for hackers. Regular reviews, security encryption updates, and robust authentication and authorization mechanisms are necessary to […]

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 […]

In the competitive field of industrial operations, minimizing downtime is crucial for financial success. The challenge lies in managing complex data spread across various systems within industrial environments. Quickly identifying and solving issues without advanced analytics can be difficult. Operators often spend time consulting manuals to diagnose problems and follow protocols. Automation can streamline this […]

The traditional approach to programming industrial automation systems, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and robots, has been devoid of modern software development best practices. Meanwhile, as the industrial landscape evolves towards greater factory automation, the management of automation software becomes crucial. Implementing DevOps methodology on cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS) can significantly […]
