Engineering has always utilized and experimented with digital solutions, way before they were even branded digital solutions. This panel will explore how those digital solutions have changed and importantly how the solution hasn’t but the use and how value is obtained has. For example, Advanced Condition Monitoring or Advanced Pattern Recognition has been around for 10+ years, which originally returned value by improving reliability of all generating types, and as cost pressures have increased and market dynamics have shifted, it is now used to optimize maintenance; the same solutions but a different outcome. This provides these solutions with longevity, reducing investment risk and importantly increases competitiveness of assets who already have the solution installed as they save time on the implementation.
