Making Smart Grids Smarter with Machine Learning
Mar 15, 2021
As energy demand continues to increase in parallel with the growth of the world population, our energy systems need to evolve to be more flexible, sustainable, and distributed. It was only a month ago that extreme weather events highlighted the fragility of the Texas electrical grid. As Texans’ demand for electricity soared, utility operators revealed just how poorly prepared they were for the cold weather. The Texas electricity grid failed in spectacular fashion, and there are chances it will happen again.
