Power

Growing demand from large-load users — ranging from data centers to advanced manufacturing — along with continued momentum in decarbonization, electrification and distributed energy resources (DERs) is fundamentally reshaping how the electric grid is planned and operated. This shift is further accelerated by the convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT), combined with the selective use of AI in areas such as forecasting, asset health and operations. These advancements are unlocking new efficiencies and cost savings while also raising the stakes for cybersecurity considerations that require stronger OT threat protection and more sophisticated governance frameworks.

As the power industry takes center stage in the energy transition, it must be ready to adapt quickly while navigating ongoing challenges, such as interconnection queue backlogs, supply chain disruptions and increasing demands for extreme-weather resilience. The opportunity lies in adopting transformation tools like advanced analytics, automation, targeted AI and new business models. To deliver lasting, optimal value, however, these technologies must account for workforce readiness, evolving customer expectations and shifting regulatory demands.

At 1898 & Co., we know how to turn big ideas into operational realities. We bring together capital planning and asset management with enterprise technology and data, regulatory and financial analysis, and industrial cybersecurity, enabling utilities to invest, operate and evolve with confidence.

As part of Burns & McDonnell and its more than 120 years of power experience, we deliver solutions that work in the real world, not just exist on the drawing board. Our experience spans nearly every customer type — investor-owned, public power and cooperative utilities; independent power producers; governments; transmission system operators; and infrastructure investors. With a deep understanding of both digital and physical infrastructure, we turn data into action, applying proven methods and, where useful, AI-enhanced grid analytics and probabilistic forecasting to support better, faster decisions.

Together, we can envision and enable the future, making it practical, progressive and resilient with approaches that balance engineering rigor, operational reality and responsible innovation.
