Meeting Global Electricity Demands: The Strategic Role of Nuclear and Hydro

Join us for a groundbreaking session featuring two pioneers at the forefront of AI and data innovation in the energy sector: Westinghouse Electric Company and Hydro-Quebec. In the first segment, we'll explore AI's crucial role in enhancing safety, efficiency and compliance in nuclear operations through technologies like HiVE and Bertha, focusing on the unique reliability and credibility requirements of the regulated nuclear industry. Following this, Hydro-Quebec will demonstrate how they're tackling growing energy demands through innovative hierarchical forecasting systems that process terabytes of IoT sensor data across multiple levels. Their bottom-up approach leverages distributed computing paradigms and MLOps principles to train models on millions of time series datasets, ensuring grid efficiency and resilience.

Together, these presentations showcase how AI and advanced data systems are transforming critical infrastructure management across the energy sector.
