A storm is brewing in the global energy sector. In 2026, the industry finds itself reckoning with a range of existential threats.
The sector’s main problems are fourfold: ageing infrastructure, volatile markets, surging demand and the pressure to decarbonise.
There is, of course, hope. Though it becomes clearer with each passing day that these are challenges that traditional approaches can no longer address adequately.
Automation is one of the shining lights in the darkness, and the companies that embrace it earliest will feel the benefits fast.
Introducing automation to the energy sector has the potential to make grids more reliable, more efficient and more responsive.
