Scaling AI and energy resilience

Key takeaways from the Brownlow Utilities Future-Proof Conference.

As businesses navigate shifting market demands and rising sustainability targets, tackling energy resilience alongside operational efficiency has never been more vital.

Last week, our team had the pleasure of exhibiting at the Brownlow Utilities Future-Proof Conference in Wigan, connecting with forward-thinking leaders, panellists and peers dedicated to driving digital transformation across their organisations.

During the event, our Sales Director Keith Sutton took the stage to address a pressing question facing many modern enterprises: how do you tackle energy resilience and operational headaches with AI?

Start small, clean your data, and scale

Drawing on years of experience delivering high-impact AI projects, Keith shared practical insights into how organisations can realistically use next-generation technology without getting bogged down by complexity or ballooning budgets.

The core takeaway? You don’t need a total system overhaul to see immediate value. By starting small, prioritising high-quality data and securing quick wins, businesses can build a foundation for sustainable long-term scale.

During his session, Keith broke down how combining AI with low-code technology enables businesses to:

• Solve operational headaches without massive overhead: automate manual processes and streamline workflows quickly, without costly infrastructure investments.
• Unlock actionable data insights: gain clear, real-time visibility and full control over energy management and operational usage.
• Maximise ROI: prove value early by securing fast, incremental wins before expanding AI deployment across the wider organisation.

Connecting for a smarter, more sustainable future

Beyond Keith’s presentation, exhibiting at the conference gave us the opportunity to have fantastic discussions on how technology and energy resilience intersect.

A huge thank you to Dave Clarke, Lee McGhie and Shaun McClarnon for hosting a stellar event and bringing together a community so passionate about driving meaningful change through digital innovation and sustainability.
