Easing the pressure on the electrical grid with AI
It’s said that the U.S. electrical grid – a nationwide labyrinth of interconnected power plants, transmission lines, substations and more – is the largest machine in the world. If that’s the case, this machine is starting to sputter. After decades of flat electricity demand, this infrastructure-heavy ecosystem has begun an era of dramatic complexity. The upshot: over the next five to 10 years, North America will be at “elevated or high risk” of energy shortfalls. What’s needed is a methodical, mathematical solution driven by industrial AI.
