AI datacenters, fleet electrification, and reshoring are driving electricity demand to
levels the grid wasn’t built to handle. At the same time, extreme weather and aging
infrastructure are increasing outage risk and volatility in energy costs. Energy has
shifted from a back-of-house facilities decision to a C-suite priority tied directly to
revenue protection, profitability, and the ability to seize new growth. In this
environment, energy strategy is business strategy.
Protecting Revenue with Energy Resiliency
When power fails, revenue stops. In retail, outages translate immediately into lost
transactions, spoiled inventory, and customer churn. In manufacturing, even
sub-hour disruptions can scrap work-in-progress, damage equipment, and ripple
through supply chains for days. Hospitals, logistics hubs, food storage, and
data-driven operations face similar exposure—where downtime is not just costly but
mission-critical
A modern resiliency strategy goes beyond a standby generator. Leading operators
combine:
Protecting Revenue with Energy Resiliency
On-site generation (solar, fuel cells, generators) for diversified supply that isn’t
weather- or grid-dependent.
Battery energy storage for instantaneous ride-through, peak-shaving,
black-start capability, and load shaping
Programmable controls & EMS to prioritize critical loads, island when needed,
and orchestrate sources/loads in real time.
Segmented and tiered load design (critical, essential, deferrable) with
pre-planned curtailment to extend uptime.
Operational readiness (testing, drills, spares, fuel and parts logistics) and
cyber/physical security measures that keep assets available when the grid is
stressed.
