Energy Transformation – Systems Engineering in the Energy Industry – ep. 4
The energy industry has lagged in terms of digitization for many decades now. The silver lining is that they can now learn and benefit from digitalization and system engineering approaches from other industries. This minimizes their digital migration risks because they can also bring in experienced people to implement the new methodologies.
