Digital technologies have been supporting and enabling energy systems for decades, but now we are finding a greater pace of adoption globally. Coupled with the need for a sustainable future, the Energy Transition is becoming an urgent catalyst for upgrading outdated systems and infrastructure.
In this three-part series, Hansen examines the drivers behind the energy transition, the challenges and opportunities to capitalize, the 5 Ds shaping new business models and the need for digitalisation, and the effects of distributed energy resources (DERs). In the third part we round everything up with a solution to take Energy and Utilities companies to the next era of energy.
Energy Transition Part 1
The Challenges and Opportunities for the Industry
Digital technologies have been supporting and enabling energy systems for decades, but we are finding a greater pace of adaption. The potential for decentralized flexibility sources to help maintain a reliable electricity system is commanding the attention of policy makers, regulatory bodies, and industry groups worldwide – and the pace and the urgency is surging as we move towards the Energy Transition.

Energy Transition Part 2
How Distributed Energy Resources Change Business Operations
The Energy Transition manifests itself as a combination of technological evolution, de-centralisation of energy management and customer empowerment. Combined, these elements challenge how consumers (residential and industrial) purchase energy and how traditional energy businesses sell and deliver energy. As a result, new business models are emerging.
Download this second part of our report, where we examine how distributed energy resources (DER) are influencing the energy industry of today – and of tomorrow.
You’ll learn about:
- The fundamental changes in business operations
- Why full-scale DER adoption is taking so long
- How to prepare for the full impact of DER

Priorities for Change-Hansen Solutions for the Energy Transition
Without a doubt, business model redesign as a response to the conditions of the energy transition is accelerating with the increasing speed of technology advancement. Energy companies are busy doing their research, looking into how they need to change and adapt. Key questions will be: How do they prioritise? What areas should they look at changing first? During this time of realising the energy transition, important choices in business and operational systems will continue to be made.
Download Part 3 of our report on the Energy Transition in which we provide our view on the priorities for change and how that is realised in the Hansen Suite for Energy and Utilities.
You’ll learn about:
- How to prepare your business and operational systems for the full impact of DER
- A few cases where Hansen is assisting energy providers adapt to the energy transition
- Preparing to handle variety and service adaptability, scaling for DER growth
