    #Factoftheweek

    By 2030, global transmission infrastructure investment is projected to rise to $573.7 billion, up from $372.6 billion in 2025, which is a growth rate of roughly 9.2%.

    What’s driving this growth?

    • The need for smart, connected grids that leverage technology like #AI, the #IoT, and realtime analytics.
    • A desire for improved efficiency, resilience, and demand forecasting.
    • Growth in areas like renewable energy, EVs (electric vehicles), and more.

    The reality is the grid is no longer just wires and poles. It is a digital, intelligent network.

    It makes you think about what areas of the value chain are the most overlooked: grid software, hardware, #digitaltwin, AI, storage, etc.

    What are your thoughts? Does this growth track? What are the biggest barriers to deploying smart grids today? How will all of this evolve in the next five years?
