Back to the Future: Business Transformation and the Future of Work Through RPA Robotics Process Automation (RPA) is a major disrupting technology. 62% of CEOs expect this technology to completely disrupt their business within the next 5 years, according to a PwC CEO Survey. The concept of 'Digital Labor' is seeping into the lexicon of executive business speech as they look to adapt their operating models to automate a broad spectrum of business processes on demand. As RPA 'BOTS' mimic the actions of humans, it follows that there will be displacement of human workers as a result. Therefore, with the increased adoption and criticality of the new processes with BOTS, there is a great imperative to develop and deploy robots that exceed the level of productivity and quality as humans are replace. This presentation will focus on the current state of the market and the impact of RPA on business operation, workforce development, quality and compliance imperatives. Forward-thinking companies need to understand this disruptive technology and how it will impact today's workforce. The presentation will explore how companies can unlock the full potential of automation using robotic process automation throughout the enterprise. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs.
About this Course This 5 full-day course presents the most modern statistical and mathematical forecasting frameworks used by practitioners to tackle the load forecasting problem across short time and long time scales. The course presents practical applications to solving forecasting challenges, supported by real life examples from large control areas. It presents the weather impacts on the load forecasts and the methodologies employed to quantify the weather effect and building a repository of weather normal data. A good load forecast methodology must improve its forecasting accuracy and support a consistent load forecasting process. The load forecasting widely used in the power industry has evolved significantly with the advancement and adoption of Artificial Intelligence techniques such as Machine Learning. With the increased penetration of inverter-based resources, the operation of electric grids grew in complexity, leading to load forecasts that are updated more frequently than once a day. Furthermore, several jurisdictions adopted a smaller granularity than the hourly load forecasts in the effort to reduce the forecasting uncertainties. On the generation side, fuel forecasting professionals must meet energy requirements while making allowance for the uncertainty on both the demand and the supply side. This training course will also feature a guest speaker, who is a Ph.D candidate to provide insights into the most modern aspects of Artificial Intelligence in the context of load forecasting. Training Objectives This course offers a comprehensive approach to all aspects of load forecasting: Gain a perspective of load forecasting from both operators in the generating plant and system operators. Understand and review the advanced load forecasting concepts and forecasting methodologies Learn the application of Artificial Neural Networks and Probabilistic Forecasting methods to manage forecasting uncertainties in short time frames Appreciate market segmentation and econometric framework for long term forecasts Find out the most recent practical application of load forecasting as examples from large power companies Get access to recent industry reports and developments Target Audience Energy load forecasting professionals from power plant and system operators Energy planners and energy outlook forecasters and plant operators Fuel procurement professionals Planners and schedulers of thermal generating units Course Level Intermediate Trainer Your expert course instructor is a Utility Executive with extensive global experience in power system operation and planning, energy markets, enterprise risk and regulatory oversight.
