The most important metric electric companies are graded upon is grid reliability. While this has always been the case, it has taken heightened importance in today’s digital economy, where even a few minutes without electricity can cost businesses considerable money. In order to have a reliable system, outage management is absolutely crucial, particularly when utilities are planning outages for maintenance. In this session, attendees will learn of a tool to help improve the process--machine learning. This presentation covers how machine learning can allow for better resource management, reducing downtime, and improving reliability.
