AI Revolutionizes Grid Management: A Game-Changer for Utilities?
The U.S. Department of Energy has identified near-term opportunities for AI to enhance grid management in four key areas: planning, permitting, operations, and resilience. AI-powered predictive analytics are enabling utilities to forecast energy demand and supply with unprecedented accuracy, much like a weather forecaster predicts storms days in advance. This technology is helping utilities optimize resource allocation and reduce waste, but it also raises concerns about data privacy and cybersecurity. As AI continues to evolve, will it lead to a fully autonomous, self-healing power grid that can adapt to changing conditions in real-time?
