The AI-Energy Nexus: Transforming the Transition to Low-Carbon Power

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionising industries worldwide, offering transformative solutions to address one of the most pressing challenges of our time, climate change. By leveraging AI’s capabilities in data analysis, optimisation, and predictive modelling, industries can enhance energy efficiency, reduce carbon intensity, and drive sustainable innovation. The intersection of data centre growth and AI advancement has sparked serious discussions about power availability as a potential limiting factor in the growth of AI technologies. This rapid expansion has brought challenges in energy supply and management. On the other side, scalable AI infrastructure encourages innovation in designing data centres sustainably and other energy-efficient hardware designs.

This roundtable will explore the transformative role of AI in advancing cleaner energy initiatives, with a particular focus on its applications in optimising energy grids and managing the surging energy demands of AI itself. It will also address the challenges of sustainable AI implementation, including the carbon footprint of digital infrastructure and the need for robust policies to support its responsible adoption. Industry experts will delve into how AI can accelerate efforts to reduce carbon emissions, particularly in Asia, a region grappling with high energy demand, significant carbon emissions, and the increasing power needs of AI infrastructure.
