Digital Twin (DT) models and workflows have evolved to become increasingly important in power systems short-term asset and network-wide optimization applications. However, DT characteristics must go beyond the connectivity platform between data 
collection, digital workflows, and visualization systems.
The orchestration between an automated rule-based design tool, model-driven predictive analysis, co-simulation platform, training simulation hub, combined with real-time analytics, and intelligent controls provides the necessary foundation that transforms information into actionable decisions.
Harnessing the power of ETAP’s ecosystem throughout the digital transformation process will help Kenyan and East Africa engineers, operators, and managers increase their awareness and understanding of systems, in a cost-effective and repeatable environment.This will be achieved by offering:
- Early decision support
- Increased productivity
- Shortened design time
- Improved safety
- Asset performance optimisation
- Reduced cost of operations
ETAP Unified Digital Twins are important building blocks in all stages of an electrical system’s life cycle.
