Rob Robinson, client partner in utilities practice for Capgemini, talks with TechRepublic about what the catastrophic outages in Texas should teach us about predicting threats to U.S. the power grid.

I think what you're going to see is that in the normal band of operation, I think, not just in Texas, but around the country, there's a lot of scenario planning, there's a lot of analytics that are present and used up from real-time, what they call, state estimation and situational wellness to situational awareness all the way to 20-year modeling to keep this grid stable. I think it's going to be a combination of modeling, not just the power grid, but the gas grid, of that water infrastructure-there's a whole huge behavioral modeling frontier that's going to be opened up.
