AI is rapidly becoming a key differentiator for companies in the Energy Sector, but its impact depends on more than the technology itself. In this podcast, Paul Haggerty from Capgemini and Hans Kouwer from Octave discuss how organizations can prepare for the next wave of digital transformation and AI by building the right information foundation. The conversation explores why trusted, controlled and contextualized information is essential for AI to support business processes effectively, especially across the asset lifecycle. With many organizations still operating in silos between design, build, operate and protect, the discussion highlights the need to connect lifecycle information and preserve context so that AI can deliver meaningful, scalable business value.
