Operational Excellence in Energy Distribution through Digital Cognition
Author(s): Fabrizio Benelli, Franco Maciariello* and Redvin Marku
Energy distribution systems are being redefined by a profound digital shift that extends beyond automation and classical SCADA-based visibility. Modern utilities must move toward what can be understood as digital cognition: a progressive convergence of human expertise, explainable artificial intelligence, distributed analytics, and edge intelligence capable of supervising networks under volatility, uncertainty, and infrastructure complexity. Operational excellence can no longer rely solely on deterministic automation, efficiency metrics, or reactive maintenance policies; instead, it increasingly depends on cognitive supervision mechanisms in which human decision-making remains central, yet augmented by predictive, context-aware and transparent insights generated at the edge. This article proposes a managerial interpretation of digital cognition in electricity distribution networks, hi.. Read More»
