Before you read another AI headline

When the conversation turns to AI,
can you see the opportunity?

That is the transformation this book gives you: from watching the AI in Energy conversation move around you to understanding it, questioning it and speaking fluently inside it.

Dr. Veronika Shabunko
Prof. Seeram Ramakrishna

Time to go beyond the headlines

Time to go
deep.

Leave surface-level AI fluency to your competitors. While they repeat buzzwords, you will understand the applications, business logic and decision questions that separate a real AI opportunity from an expensive experiment.

10
chapters mapping AI across the energy transition
6
technology areas: solar, wind, BESS, VPPs, grids and frontier tech
6
core AI tasks: forecast, detect, optimize, dispatch, verify and explain
7
