About This Course
AI for Energy Sector Optimization and Renewable Resources shows how machine learning drives efficiency across the whole energy value chain. You learn to apply AI to generation and asset optimisation, distribution and grid efficiency, renewable forecasting and integration, and energy trading and markets. The course connects these to the twin goals of cutting cost and carbon, using real energy data and its seasonality and volatility. You finish able to reason about applying AI to an energy-sector optimisation problem. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
