Powering the future of energy with Platned and IFS

The global power generation industry faces growing challenges – ageing infrastructure, rising demand, climate pressures, and the shift to renewables. To succeed, utilities must go beyond incremental change and fully transform their operations with intelligent technology and trusted partners.

A partnership built for energy transformation

Platned, in collaboration with IFS, delivers advanced software solutions designed for power generation. By combining industry expertise with IFS Cloud™, we help utilities modernize operations, optimize asset management, and prepare their workforce for the future.

Our focus is clear: balance supply and demand, invest in smarter infrastructure, and close the talent gap.

Balancing supply and demand

Energy demand is becoming more unpredictable, with electric vehicles, AI, and extreme weather creating spikes, while renewables like solar and wind add variability. IFS Cloud uses AI-driven forecasting and customer engagement tools to help stabilize grids and reduce blackout risks. Platned ensures these solutions are deployed effectively, translating complex technology into measurable outcomes.

Building resilient infrastructure

Much of today’s grid is outdated and costly to maintain. IFS Cloud provides real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and AI-powered risk assessment to extend asset life and prevent failures. Platned supports utilities in integrating these tools – whether managing wind farms, solar parks, or traditional plants – reducing downtime and ensuring grid stability.

Closing the workforce gap

With experienced staff retiring and fewer recruits entering the sector, utilities face a skills shortage. IFS Cloud supports productivity with mobile workforce tools, AI scheduling, and real-time collaboration. Platned builds on this with tailored training, digital knowledge sharing, and partnerships to prepare the workforce of tomorrow.
