Introduction

This event is organised by the Artificial Intelligence for Decarbonisation’s Virtual Centre of Excellence (ADViCE), aimed at the development of innovative artificial intelligence technologies for decarbonisation applications to support the transition to Net Zero.

As a collaboration between Digital Catapult, Energy Systems Catapult and The Alan Turing Institute. As part of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero’s Net Zero Innovation Portfolio, ADViCE will be delivering a series of webinars focused on key challenges identified in the ADViCE: AI for Decarbonisation Challenges report, which highlights key areas that could benefit from AI adoption in the effort to decarbonise. 

About the event

In the final of our ADViCE (AI for Decarbonisation’s Virtual Centre for Excellence) webinars, we’ll consider how to best use AI to support the challenge of enabling the development of Net Zero infrastructure.

To meet our green energy targets we’ll all be required to drive significant expansion and acceleration of both our electricity networks and increased renewable infrastructure connections.

This webinar will discuss the challenges to building and connecting the assets required to meet Net Zero and some of the AI solutions which can be used to support this mission.

We will also have presentations from Continuum Industries, Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks and the Energy Networks Association demonstrating innovative AI use cases from the energy sector.

Expert Panel

  • Beth Warnock (Senior Power Systems Engineer at Energy Systems Catapult)

    Beth is Energy System Catapult’s Senior Power Systems Engineer and will outline the core challenges, potential solutions for building new energy infrastructure on the networks, and how AI can support system operation.

  • Adam Anyszerski (Co-founder and CPO), Andreas Malekos (Head of AI), and Sam Watts (AI Engineer) at Continuum Industries

    The team at Continuum Industries will be presenting their innovative platform which utilises AI to accelerate infrastructure planning, site selection and optioneering for energy infrastructure and grid connections.

  • Shaun Hodge (Product Owner at Scottish and Southern Electricity)

    The team at SSEN Transmission will be discussing their ‘AI Feedback and Sentiment Analysis Tool’ a cutting-edge solution that has revolutionised how they analyse stakeholder feedback. The system processes vast volumes of public feedback quickly and accurately, reducing the time required for analysis from weeks to hours and minutes, to enable prompt stakeholder response and timely delivery.

  • Dan Clarke (Head of Innovation at Energy Networks Association)

    Dan is Head of Innovation at ENA, and will be presenting their new AI-powered tool, which utilises installer images to streamline the approval process for domestic low-carbon technologies.
