    AI adoption in energy has moved beyond pilot projects. Despite differences between regulated and unregulated entities (as well as the specific nuances of individual sub-sectors), the challenges and opportunities around AI tend to be broadly consistent. Companies across the energy value chain are converging on common AI use cases in areas like operational efficiency, asset optimisation, safety, sustainability and predictive maintenance.

    For AI to truly scale and deliver value, energy companies must rethink not just their technology, but their entire operating model. Those that can align AI with business strategy, integrate data and technology and create a workforce ready to embrace AI-powered decision-making will likely be the ones that lead in the next era of energy transformation.

    How you can realize value from an AI transformation journey

    To address these challenges, ÀÖÓ㣨Leyu£©ÌåÓý¹ÙÍø introduces the three phases of AI value â€� a framework designed to guide energy companies through the AI adoption journey. This phased approach provides a structured roadmap, helping the energy industry prioritise investments, align initiatives with business goals, and position themselves effectively in the age of AI in energy.

    AI transformation journey

    The Enable phase establishes the foundations for AI adoption and focuses on creating awareness, experimentation and alignment to help ensure the organisation is prepared for broader AI integration. This includes developing an AI strategy, increasing AI literacy, learning from initial implementations and more.

    The Embed phase integrates AI into end-to-end value streams and transforms ways of working across the enterprise. A senior leader, supported by a capable transformation office, oversees enterprise-wide change.

    The Evolve phase transforms enterprises so they can anticipate market disruptions, forming new business models and ecosystems to solve larger, industry-wide problems. Energy companies move beyond internal optimisation and become orchestrators of interconnected ecosystems, seamlessly integrating producers, grid operators, industrial consumers, governments and sustainability initiatives.
