Can Computers and Math Save the Climate? (Rebroadcast)

Can Computers and Math Save the Climate? (Rebroadcast)

This week: artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the many ways they can decarbonize the economy.

From optimizing buildings to modeling new industrial processes to better managing the grid, AI and machine learning are core to many technology strategies for addressing climate change.

So how, exactly, will they be implemented? And what problems can they solve?

With us is Priya Donti, a PHD student at Carnegie Mellon University. Her work is focused on machine learning, grid systems and climate change. She is also the co-chair of Climate Change AI, a group of academics and practitioners looking at machine learning as a decarbonization tool.

This episode was originally broadcast in February 2020.

The Interchange is brought to you by Smarter Grid Solutions, a leading enterprise energy management software company. Find out how Smarter Grid Solutions’ software can give you real control over your clean energy assets.
