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 modeling, industries can enhance energy efficiency, reduce carbon intensity, and drive sustainable innovation.

This event 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.

This session will discuss:

• How can AI optimise grid operations and energy management, particularly in integrating renewable sources and balancing demand?
• How can AI improve the accuracy and efficiency of tracking emissions across supply chains?
• What role does AI play in fostering innovation for low-carbon technologies, especially those critical for grid modernisation?
• What frameworks are needed to scale AI applications for reducing carbon emissions across Asia, while managing the energy footprint of AI itself?
