The analytics capabilities are embedded within existing IT and OT systems or offered as functional, application agnostic modules. GE Digital’s microservices-based solutions, offer deployment flexibility, faster time to value, and interoperability with existing legacy systems and vendors.

The report highlights GE Digital’s broad analytics solutions that enable faster, higher fidelity, data access and optimization that is required to address the challenges posed by increasing DER penetration on the grid. Leading-edge solutions leverage AI capabilities including computer vision, natural language processing, and machine learning (ML) for detection, prediction, forecasting, optimization, and overall grid management. ML is foundational to the GE Digital portfolio to optimize complex actions that span grid use cases including asset inspections, vegetation management, and storm preparedness.

“Advances in analytics capabilities and the influx in available data have positioned AI as a successful and necessary tool for grid management,” said Hannah Davis, Senior Research Analyst – AI and Advanced Analytics, Guidehouse Insights, one of the authors of the report. “The companies that are named leaders, like GE Digital, have clearly differentiated themselves from the competition through exceptional technology development, strong partner relationships, a sustainable business model, and significant market traction.
