Hyperautomation in energy and utilities: From RPA to fully agent-orchestrated network operations
The rapid growth of distributed energy resources, transport electrification, renewable integration, and smart grid technologies is increasing operational complexity across utility networks. Hyperautomation, combining RPA, AI, process mining, advanced analytics, and orchestration platforms, is emerging as a critical framework for automating end-to-end workflows across grid monitoring, predictive maintenance, outage management, and compliance. This article examines how utilities are progressing from early automation initiatives to fully orchestrated digital operations and how hyperautomation can enable more resilient, adaptive, and intelligent energy networks.
