Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution
How electric power generation, transmission and distribution are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 25% of Electric Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: With all child occupations having unknown digital values, this assessment relies entirely on the industry lens prior and description. The core value-producing work—operating power generation facilities, transmission lines, and distribution networks—is fundamentally physical infrastructure management, placing this industry solidly in the physical band at 0.25.
