Can We Trust AI to Run the Grid? From Data Infrastructure to Operational Intelligence

Dienstag, 23. Juni 2026, 09:30 - 11:00 Uhr

ICM München Raum 4

Bitte beachten Sie, dass alle Konferenzsessions in englischer Sprache abgehalten werden. Grid operators are no longer asking whether AI belongs in control rooms, but when they will be able to rely on it. AI tools for forecasting imbalances, detecting congestion, supporting dispatch decisions as well as enabling digital twins and edge intelligence are advancing rapidly. At the same time, European frameworks are evolving to support data-driven grid operation.But trust is not built on model accuracy alone - it requires real-world deployment, transparent validation and clear human oversight.During this 90-minute session, speakers will share concrete results from deployed systems. Find out where AI-assisted operation has delivered measurable improvements, what data infrastructure is genuinely needed and what regulatory conditions can help a tool move from the pilot phase to one that becomes part of daily operations.
