Strategic Roadmap for digitalisation and AI in the energy sector
The use of digital solutions is essential to enable the energy transition and efficiently manage the growing complexity of the energy system. We therefore strongly support the EU Commission’s aim to unlock the potential of digitalisation and AI for energy. AI can be a powerful enabler of the energy transition – but only if its integration is backed by clear regulation, open and trusted data, robust digital infrastructure, and targeted research into energy-specific AI models. In this paper, we outline what we consider essential to ensure that AI is more widely deployed in the energy sector and can fully unfold its potential.
