Global Conference on Energy and AI


Forum on Energy & AI

The Forum on Energy & AI will bring together leading subject-matter experts from government, the energy industry, the tech sector, civil society and academia. The objective is to engage in a series of expert roundtables on the implications of AI for energy systems, and energy for AI. 

Roundtables will be structured with input presentations from selected participants, with ample time for discussion. It is envisaged that participants will participate actively throughout the day, attending several roundtables, and that insights from one sector or issue area will spark reflections in another. The agenda overview is shown below. Exact timing and sequencing of sessions is subject to change.
