No Easy Way to Integrate and Analyze Subcycle Data
The SCADA and EMS are already in place. Regulators are now requiring new types of monitoring devices at the POI and even at the PPC or generators. Feeding this into the control room is no easy task.

Relying on Data Pipelines and Software Tools from Hardware Vendors is Risky
Building your data ingestion, visualization and analysis capabilities on the foundation of tools and software provided by a hardware seller risks locking you in to one vendor or having to manage complex pipelines from multiple vendors, neither of which is ideal, while also building custom tools to find value.

Plant Simulation Playback is Limited
How common is it to run playback simulations using actual power quality data from the plant and see how the plant should have responded? How often are models and plant behavior validated using real power quality data?

The Key Dynamical Behavior of the Plant is Blurred
Current data ingestion pipelines blur the most critical behavior at the subcycle level, necessary to diagnose problems, build corrective action plans, and optimize plant performance.
