Marco Milone, SGB-SMIT: Harnessing the Power of Digitalization Concepts in Transformer Design Tools for Sustainability

This presentation is hosted by Marco Milone.

At Hitachi Energy, our purpose is to advance a sustainable energy future for all, and we are delivering this through our pioneering innovation combined with our strong belief in the value of collaboration and tackling the challenge together.

The Energy Transition that our planet now needs, brings with it many challenges. To achieve our decarbonisation goals will require extensive investment in new electric power infrastructure, but this alone will not be enough. Digitalization is the only way to manage this complexity and deliver the necessary visibility, agility and fast, data-driven decision-making across an entire business.

Today more than at any time in the history of generation, transmission and distribution, we need the benefits of domain knowledge and support of intelligent insights to ensure reliable grid operation – join us to learn how Hitachi Energy’s open, scalable and manufacture agnostic Ecosystem can bring you Real World benefits today, tomorrow and in the future.
