The renewable energy sector is entering a new phase of growth, one defined not just by greater generation capacity, but by increasing complexity. AI, IoT, energy storage, hydrogen, and smarter grid infrastructure are creating new opportunities to improve performance, reduce costs, and unlock value. But as renewable portfolios scale, so too does the operational burden behind them: fragmented data, complex financial structures, expanding supplier networks, long-life assets, and rising demands for transparent reporting.

For the second consecutive year, Touchstone is proud to be exhibiting at Maintec — the UK’s longest-standing exhibition for predictive maintenance, reliability, and asset management.
Taking place on the 3rd and 4th June, the show brings together experts, leaders, and innovators shaping the future of asset-intensive operations. This year, we’re returning with more to show, including the latest developments in Octave Attune (formerly HxGN EAM and HxGN APM), our cloud-based enterprise asset management solution built to help organisations extend asset life, improve maintenance efficiency, and reduce unplanned downtime.
