The smart grid requires an advanced level of computing to be deployed at the edge of the grid to manage and optimize the highly distributed intermittent loads introduced. It also requires a “total system” approach to effectively balance multiple fluctuating energy sources, consumption levels and new renewable technologies.
- AI is transforming the grid. Here's how. | World Economic ForumAI will transform the grid from an aging supplier of commodity electricity to an intelligent “system of systems” that produces optimised outcomes. Steep increases in renewables will cut electric sector emissions, but the grid must undergo major changes for this to occur. The world’s energy systems are changing.
- Why energy efficiency is key to sustainable developmentEnergy supply is inevitably linked to this challenge. Energy and its appropriate availability to all people can boost economic development and human well-being (e.g. cooking, heating, cooling, lighting, transportation). But it could also worsen the adverse impacts such as climate change, air pollution, and regional disparities.
