Energy Tech Podcast: Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence - The Catalyst for Microgrids?

A move towards microgrids has the potential for significant socio-economic and environmental benefit, assisting with decarbonisation and improving network resilience. However, operating such as system requires the efficient and accurate monitoring and recording of usage data and coordination between multiple energy sources and the central electricity network. In this podcast, we take a look at how he Internet of Things, machine learning and artificial intelligence can effectively use this data to establish consumption and usage patterns so that demand and supply are balanced, and how blockchain allows for the automated execution of smart contracts in peer-to-peer (P2P) trading networks.
