3 Hitting the Heart of our Utility Business Leadership on getting Business Value from Data Not just an other Technology Available New Way of Getting into Decisions New Coordination Mechanisms A Faster Heartbeat Be Aware of the Not Invented Here Virus?! To become Data Driven is about investments in Technology & Culture 3

4 Key Drivers for a Data Driven Strategy Leadership on a different way of working together Growing Complexity Grid Operations & Investments Diversity / Development Customer Services Demand Opportunities Digitalization Technology People Run the Business Board Investments in Data Driven Capabilities Change the Business 4

5 How could we define Digitalization in Utility Businesses? Identify optimal choices in Enabling IT Platforms, Data & Skills Scope of Digitalization Explore Future role Grid (new) Physical & Virtual Services Model the Grid Backbone for Decision Sense the Grid Only where this Adds Value Operate the (new) Grid Effective & Efficiently Run the Business Integrated Enabling Strategy Change the Business 5

6 A Multi-Level Multi Discipline Large Scale Change Stop Thinking in IT & Business - focus on Integrated Capabilities New Capabilities to Develop What How Why Information Plan & Architecture Long Term Vision Strategic Program (Board Level) Key Design Principles Continuous Development Implementation & Optimization Different Coordination Mechanisms Strategic & Operational Ownership on Board Level SAFe Agile Framework Enabling Strategy Portfolio based IT Budget 6

New Technology in the Grid Change the Business Analytical Models Field Trials New Sensor Chains Implementation Data Quality Standardization IT Platform Design 7

8 Digitalization is not just Putting Sensors in the Grid Identify optimal choices in Enabling IT Platforms Automation Advanced Interaction World Customer Services of the Grid Insight 24/7 Interaction Action Data People & Knowledge Process Redesign/ Implementation Culture Digitalization Enabling Policy Physical World Automation Data Platforms Status GridControl Real-time Data Data & Insights Technology Source Registration Register Data World of Basic Systems &-Processes 8

9 Simulating the energy transition Business question: What effect will solar power, electric vehicles and heat pumps have on the power grid? Challenge: Simulating over 30 million cables. Their combined length is over 88,000 km. Applications: Strategic financial planning, smarter network design, congestion identification and more. 9

10 Step Changing Transformers Situation: Voltage is required to be in the range of 230V +/- 10%. Business question: How many step changing transformers are required? Approach: Large scale low voltage time series simulation Voltage problems, 2017, 1.1 kw PV at every household Voltage problems, 2017, 1.1 kw PV at every household 10
