Why AI-driven district heating plays an important role in the climate challenge? –

Why AI-driven district heating plays an important role in the climate challenge? – | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it
ortum has developed artificial intelligence to optimise the district heating system and its operations; this will enable the flexible district heating system of the future. AI predicts the heat demand of our customers, steers the usage of storages and guides the control room in the optimal utilisation of assets. In practice, already now, this often also means the prioritisation of carbon-neutral production. AI has already been implemented in Fortum’s district heating systems in Finland, the Baltic countries, Poland and Norway.

Art Intell - How to respond to climate change, if you are an algorithm | Open Future | Energy Transition in Europe | www.energy-cities.eu | Scoop.it
THE ECONOMIST’S Open Future essay competition winner was announced in September, beating nearly 2,400 entries from over 110 countries. But how might artificial intelligence tackle the question? We asked it. Specifically, we fed the essay question and the 58-word description through a natural-language processing algorithm called GPT-2, released publicly in February by OpenAI, a group working on AI research and ethics, based in San Francisco.
