Bringing Artificial Intelligence to the Grid Edge [Technology Leaders]

As the demand for energy increases along with the requirements for decarbonization, there is more complexity in which the world produces, moves, and consumes energy. The way we supply and consume energy is becoming increasingly complex and requires us to leverage technology and learn from the success of other industries. From the fuel that powers cars and planes, to the gas used for stove top cooking, to the electricity that keeps the lights on in homes and businesses, energy powers our daily lives. Oil, gas, and electricity are mature commodity markets, but as the mix changes at a rate never seen before, the industry must adapt at a similar pace. This includes leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), real-time analytics, and machine learning to create autonomous energy systems that can increase reliability and resiliency in a more complicated world. However, AI alone is not enough to transform the processes used to produce, transport, and deliver these resources.
