End-to-end IT/OT consulting and integration
Helping utilities navigate IT/OT convergence
The IT/OT convergence will result in a more integrated utility technology ecosystem. Traditionally, Information Technology (IT) and Operations Technology (OT) has functioned in different domains within utilities. Now, as technology advances and data accumulation increases, IT and OT are converging. Managing the IT/OT convergence requires utilities to leverage the data collected by operational technology solutions to make better decisions, predict failures and outages and increase operational efficiency. The broader fields of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence provide these opportunities. TRC helps the utility industry modernize their digital grid ecosystems
New Challenges of a Bidirectional Grid
With the rise of smart meters, sensors, solar panels, EVs and battery storage, utilities are tasked with managing a bidirectional grid – not just the power, but also the data.
Four Trends Upending the Utility Industry
Four trends have upended the utility industry over the past decade, requiring modernization of IT and OT systems.
