Frontiers of Grid Automation Research: Working as One Hitachi
In this episode of Power Pulse, we explore the frontiers of grid research with our guest Bo Yang, who shares how digital innovation is reshaping the future of energy systems. From early work anticipating the rise of renewables to leading-edge collaborations with utilities, research institutions, and regulators, Bo takes us inside the evolution of advanced grid planning and operations.
The conversation highlights how increasing demand from renewables, electric vehicles, and data centers is fundamentally changing how grids must be designed and managed. At the core of this transformation is software—often unseen, yet critical in enabling faster, data-driven decisions that impact billions of dollars in infrastructure investments and determine how quickly new energy resources can come online.
