GlobalData’s FutureTech Series report, “Electrical substations in Utilities 2.0: how tech is driving the sector innovation,” highlights more than 30 disruptive forces in power and utilities as emerging, accelerating, and maturing innovation areas based on their rate of growth in innovation.

Hitachi Energy patented a self-reliant substation in September 2022z. It features an enclosed switchgear with an automated robot for maintenance ensuring safety by locking the area during active circuits and only allowing entry based on human presence and circuit energy status.

Jiangsu Zhongke Yunmo secured a patent for a transformer substation smart management system in August 2022. The system integrates artificial intelligence, internet-connected devices, and data encryption through a digital twin. Its goal is to enhance data clarity, system functionality, and accountability, enabling improved oversight, predictive simulations, and overall performance enhancements.

Hunan Xiangdian patented a 5G-enabled method for transformer substation remote backup power switch communication in August 2022. This innovation streamlines the process by establishing virtual links between routers and optimizing the packaging and transmission of critical data.

Singh concludes: “The journey towards modernization unleashes challenges such as new risks, cost implications, and the necessity for standardization. Steering through these hurdles necessitates a blend of technological advancements and strategic insights. Overcoming these challenges not only paves the way for enhanced operational efficiency but also fosters a favorable environment for continuous innovation, showcasing that addressing challenges is pivotal in the modernization journey.”
