Why this matters
A briefing on the conditions reshaping critical infrastructure — and the response from operators around the world.

Recognised as infrastructure experts.

CNBC collaborated with nxzen to explore how intelligent infrastructure is reshaping energy and utilities worldwide - improving resilience, safety, and operational performance in an increasingly complex environment.

Energy networks are facing unprecedented pressure from ageing assets, climate risk, and the transition to cleaner energy systems. Access to reliable, real-time insight is no longer a nice-to-have, it is essential.

This documentary was produced with Acumen Media and published on CNBC as part of the Global Sustainable Trade Initiative showcasing how intelligent infrastructure is helping energy and utility organisations improve resilience, visibility, and decision-making.

The bigger picture

Operators rethinking resilience

Two networks, two geographies, one shared move from periodic inspection to continuous insight - built on integrated data.
Australia | Energy DNO

Building resilience in high-risk environments.

Distributing electricity to 2.8 million customers, Endeavour Energy operates across regions highly exposed to bushfire risk. By combining digital twins, drone imagery and integrated asset data, the organisation has been able to:

Identify significantly more defects ahead of bushfire season
Improve network reliability across the distribution footprint
Enhance safety for communities and customers
"With so much of our network exposed to bushfire risk, understanding asset condition ahead of the season is critical. By using digital twins and integrated data, we can identify risks earlier and make decisions that directly support safety.”

Creating a smarter gas network

Cadent operates the UK’s largest gas distribution network, where visibility into asset performance is critical. Through real-time monitoring and integrated data platforms, Cadent is enabling:

More targeted interventions
Reduced operational disruption
Improved efficiency across the network
“With access to real-time data, we’re able to prioritise interventions more effectively, minimise disruption for customers, and take a more forward-looking approach.”
Chris Rison, Cadent

Our perspective
From reactive operations to proactive resilience
"Energy networks are becoming more complex, more interconnected, and more exposed to climate risk. Intelligent infrastructure gives operators the visibility they need to anticipate problems, reduce risk, and make better decisions before disruption occurs.”
