Will the Grid of the future be powered by GenAI?
Welcome to this fireside chat where we will explore the transformative impact of Generative AI on the energy sector. We will delve into the critical questions shaping the future of energy: How can Generative AI revolutionize the utilities space? Is the use of AI technologies always justified by their benefits in terms of energy cost and efficiency? And perhaps most importantly, will this surge in AI capabilities encourage a broader adoption across all utility operations?
Join us as we unravel these questions with Gen-AI focused- utility leaders, technology developers, promising scaleups, and investors.
These talks are hosted by Mind the Bridge, a SF-based global open innovation platform, providing services and products to corporates and local startup ecosystems in collaboration with Terna, the first grid transmission operator for electricity transmission in Europe.
Who Should Attend:
Grid technology innovators, utility leaders, investors, large customers, regulators, and others interested in advancing AI and GenAI technology into the grid.
