In this episode, we sit down with Devan Pillay, President of Schneider Electric’s Heavy Industries segment, to unpack what this shift really means for the future of energy. We explore how autonomy is evolving across pipelines, gas processing, and LNG operations, and what has changed in the past few years to accelerate adoption so dramatically. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/pipeline-innovations-techtalk-7063695/episodes/the-tipping-point-how-autonomous-operations-are-transforming-energy/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/pipeline-innovations-techtalk-7063695/the-tipping-point-how-autonomous-operations-are-transforming-energy.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
