While autonomous vehicles get a lot of press attention, autonomous and remote technology are making great strides in many other sectors as well, notably in power and energy generation.
Siemens Energy team members Arik Ott, Portfolio Manager Autonomous Operations, and Stefan Schaab, Head of Operations and Maintenance Asset Management, deal every day with the questions of autonomous operations, so they are ideal guests for this episode of the Siemens Energy Podcast.

Amy, Arik, and Stefan also discuss:
Arik and Stefan also emphasize that these changes are part of a journey that will take time but that is inevitably happening.
