AI Substation Automation

AI-enhanced automation and optimization of electrical substations

The Problem

“Reduce substation outages with intelligent automation”

Organizations face these key challenges:

Alarm floods and noisy SCADA signals obscure actionable issues; operators face hundreds to thousands of alarms during disturbances

Aging transformers, breakers, and protection systems fail unpredictably; early indicators are dispersed across DGA, relay logs, and condition data

Manual switching, settings coordination, and post-fault analysis are time-consuming and prone to error, especially with limited experienced staff

Impact When Solved

10–25% fewer unplanned substation outages through early anomaly detection and failure prediction15–30% reduction in truck rolls via better fault localization and targeted maintenance5–12% O&M savings and 10–20% faster restoration through optimized operations and automated decision support
