Siemens Energy streamlines transformer inspections with Teams and HoloLens
Siemens Energy innovated its customer acceptance tests for transformers by incorporating remote inspection capabilities via Microsoft Teams and HoloLens 2. This solution facilitates real-time interaction and data transfer, completely removing the need for on-site visits, thus significantly cutting down carbon emissions and ensuring a more effective acceptance testing process. This initiative not only streamlines operations but also exemplifies sustainable innovation within the energy sector.
