AI can help manage power sector complexity as renewables grow: IEA expert

Integration of AI can help manage complexities in the power sector, including in India, where the share of renewables is expected to grow in the years to come, an expert from the International Energy Agency (IEA) said. "...We are seeing a very strong trend of increasing complexity of the energy sector at large, specifically the electricity systems. So why is it becoming more complex? One is that in general the electrification is rising," Siddharth Sigh of IEA said while speaking at the AI Impact Summit in the national capital. During a panel discussion on Monday on AI for Power -- Accelerating the Clean Energy Transition -- the energy expert said, the end use of energy is more compared to other fuels. There is greater variable renewable electricity for the system, which was never the case in the past. Most of the other sources of electricity were stable, that is no longer the case. Now with solar and wind, the share of variable renewables is expected to be sizeable by the end of th

IIT Delhi uses AI to improve streamflow predictions for India's rivers

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi have combined traditional models used to predict streamflow in India's rivers with artificial intelligence, finding that the new approach significantly improved prediction accuracy in 208 of the 220 rivers tested. Accurate information of river flow is critical for water resources management, including irrigation scheduling, reducing flood risk, and reservoir operations. The team, Bhanu Magotra and Manabendra Saharia, said that large-scale hydrological models often produce significant uncertainties in streamflow estimates at local scales unless extensive basin-specific calibration is performed. Such calibration is computationally expensive and challenging to implement across a country as hydrologically diverse as India, they said. Calibration refers to the technique of adjusting a model's output to better align with observed real-world data. The AI-integrated approach, described in a paper in the journal Water Resource
