Summary

With AI tools, utilities can codify standards upfront, streamlining inputs that were once buried in spreadsheets or silos. They can help the design process become transparent and collaborative, linking engineers, EPCs, and OEMs through a unified digital platform. And the outputs? No longer static PDFs, but data-rich, reusable assets that power BIM, asset lifecycle management, and future upgrades.

Attendees will see how automation not only accelerates early- stage planning but also reduces rework, improves compliance, and unlocks engineering capacity to build the grid of the future.

Key Takeaways:

  • Accelerate substation design using automation and AI-driven tools
  • Structure inputs early with embedded standards and templates
  • Generate integrated, data-rich outputs ready for down stream processes and reuse
  • Future-proof infrastructure delivery with scalable digital workflows
