Sponsored session: We’re entering a new era for smart meters, powered by AI. If the benefits of an interconnected, customer-centric grid can be fully realized, utilities need to marry intelligent, AI-enabled software with utility-grade hardware to better support real-time energy analytics and provide the required protections to securely and reliably enable real-time grid control. In this session, we’ll hear from Sense and National Grid about the recent Revelo® meter rollout in New York, digging into the challenges they collectively faced in meeting the state’s reliability and security standards, and the opportunities their intelligent meters unlock for the region. They’ll also talk about the value of embedding AI and distributed computing software into meters to improve efficiency, enhance reliability and security, and support demand response.

Transition-AI is the leading B2B event for energy practitioners and artificial intelligence experts. The conference series brings together business leaders across the energy sector who are building AI teams, integrating AI into new products, and using AI to streamline operations.
Building off its inaugural Transition-AI: Boston event, Latitude Media is joining New York Tech Week and reconvening experts from the energy, climatetech, and artificial intelligence sectors to discuss AI’s role in the energy transition. The New York event will explore current use-cases and deployments within electric utilities, the role AI can play in streamlining project development, its impact on DER integration, and emerging applications that will continue to shape and optimize our electricity system.
One of the central pillars of our transition to a net-zero economy is "electrifying everything," from energy generation, to transportation, heating and cooling, heavy industry, even the cooktops in our homes. As this electrification is underway, it's becoming increasingly clear an advanced digital layer to climatetech is essential to add the necessary intelligence to these systems and the electric grid. This intelligence will more and more be the province of AI and the rapid innovations underway in machine learning and distributed intelligence systems.
