Session Recap: From Energy Hubs and AI Innovations to DC Microgrids and Green Hydrogen Forum Preview

The session began with a reminder to connect on LinkedIn with Thomas Hillick. The first topic discussed was energy hubs, highlighting their complexity and components. This was followed by insights into AI's role in optimizing performance, maintenance, and lifecycle management of assets as demonstrated by IBM. Octopus Energy then shared how consumers can benefit from AI without much involvement since the company handles most tasks using artificial intelligence; they also introduced the concept of joining a fan club for customers. Ben Gensieger from Siemens presented further applications of AI in software solutions. Paolo concluded with an intriguing presentation on DC microgrids, emphasizing their potential business case in Africa due to early demand and suggesting that companies like ABB could enhance success rates compared to initial attempts at implementing small-scale DC microgrids there. Attendees were invited to participate in another session focused on Green Hydrogen Forum moderated by Thomas Hillick as part of EES activities tomorrow afternoon without needing specific tickets.
