Geoinformation systems play an important role in the energy sector. Distribution grid operators in particular use them for infrastructure planning, for power connections and for generating digital power grid models. These ‘digital twins’ collect geographical and technical data to improve the efficiency and resilience of the grid and optimise utilisation rates. I will explain how energy suppliers can become more efficient in my blog post.

Quadient surprisingly announced that maintenance and further development of the customer communication management (CCM) system DOPiX would be discontinued in the next two to three years. A large portion of the German insurance industry is affected by this, with many providers forced to revise how they communicate with customers and modernise their processes as a result.

The digital transformation is changing the healthcare sector. New technologies and advanced data collection systems are revolutionising the way that health services are provided and managed. In this blog post, I will take a look at the key legislative initiatives that will shape how the handling of digital health data will be regulated and optimised in the future.

Storing electricity remains one of the key challenges of the energy transition. But which solution is the best? There a number of concepts out there, such as vehicle-to-home, vehicle-to-load and vehicle-to-grid. In our blog post, we will explain what this is all about and which solution is the best.

Publish content in different channels at the touch of a button. Whether you are talking about text, images or videos, that can be done with ease using multi-channel publishing. And best of all, this leads to lowers costs, greater efficiency and more reliable operations. You can find out how this works in my blog post.

While electricity prices on the stock market are subject to ever greater fluctuations these days, off-market contracts, known as power purchase agreements, can provide a solution. These agreements can not only provide protection against volatile prices, but also boost the expansion of renewable power plants. You will learn exactly what this is all about in this blog post.

In this blog post, I will first present the system of grid charges for electricity and gas grid operators in Germany and the influence that grid fees have on the price of gas for household customers. I will then explain why I believe that grid fees (and thus also the gas price) will rise. Finally, I will offer a prediction of what a financial relief package can and cannot provide and what consequences consumers and grid operators should take away from this.

Reports and key performance indicators (KPIs) create transparency that is of great use for many departments at a company. Using dashboards is recommended since they are a cost-effective tool for grid operators in view of the limited budgets available to them. In our blog post, we will be focusing on dashboards that provide grid operators with business and financial KPIs.

The new EU regulation to strengthen digital operational resilience aimed at financial entities – also known as DORA – has been in force since 17 July 2023, though firms will be given a two-year window to comply with its rules. This new regulation places heavy demands on many companies. In my blog post, I will explain which companies are affected and what they have to do now.
