Forecasting, Monitoring and KI – Swarm Intelligence for the Energy Transition at EM-Power Europe1.6.2023 12:26:00 EEST | Press release
The energy transition does not just change the energy generation technologies we use, but also requires the power grids to be updated. Today, instead of a dozen large-scale power plants, an enormous swarm of power plants all feed into our grid: Several thousand wind farms and over 2.6 million PV systems have been installed in Germany alone – and there is a steep upward trend. This makes our power generation weather dependent: On windless or cloudy days, the energy supply may not match the demand, leading to bottlenecks – or worse – blackouts.

Artificial intelligence (AI) helps process this highly complex information and integrate it into the energy system. This press release features multimedia.
