Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Energy and Utilities, 2018 - Technology Convergence of AI with IoT, Cloud, and Big Data will Open Up Numerous Application Opportunities in the Energy Sector

DUBLIN, Oct 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Energy and Utilities, 2018" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the biggest technological trends transforming every business sector across the world. With advances in computer technology, AI has scaled new heights in utility and application, exceeding all initial expectations. By leveraging advanced machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms, and advanced neural networks (ANN), AI can handle terabytes of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data from disparate sources and identify patterns, as well as make predictions and recommendations based on its understanding of the data. This intelligence is being harnessed to develop innumerable smart applications that can efficiently take critical decisions autonomously and accurately, without human intervention.

Currently, the global energy market is undergoing a massive shift with the emergence of decarbonization, decentralization, and new technologies. Utilities, independent power producers (IPPs), and other energy companies are exploring effective ways to manage the imbalance in demand and supply caused by the growing use of unpredictable renewable energy source (RES) in power generation. Therefore, utilities, energy companies, and grid operators are exploring ways to employ AI technologies to improve the accessibility and efficiency of renewable energy technologies. Despite its nascence, AI possesses tremendous potential to transform the energy & utilities sector. In combination with other technologies like Big Data and IoT, it can aid the active management of electricity grids by balancing demand and supply.
