Utilities are being asked to manage more assets, respond to more extreme weather, maintain reliability, and keep costs under control—all while facing workforce pressures and aging infrastructure.
In this episode, Skydio’s Christina Park joins Ameren Illinois’ Jason Klein and utility industry veteran Ahmed Moussa to explore how asset management is changing to meet those challenges.
They discuss the shift from reactive to proactive maintenance, the growing flood of grid data, the loss of institutional knowledge as experienced workers retire, and how technologies like drones, automation, and AI can help utilities make smarter decisions. They say the future of asset management isn’t simply about collecting more data. It’s about turning that data into action.
