How can I operate and maintain my network?
No matter the size of your business, having a resilient power supply that is supported by a safe, efficient and operational infrastructure is mission critical. Gartner estimates the average cost of downtime, which could be caused by a power failure, is £3,900 per minute which equates to more than £230,000 an hour.
Yet, it may not make sense to operate and maintain your energy networks internally if this is not your core business, and the task often requires specialist knowledge and expertise.
