New AI Conference Series Aims to Improve Energy Industry

Bidgely, a company focused on energy technology, has announced a new conference series called EmPOWER AI for 2027. The goal is to help the energy sector — the companies that provide electricity and gas to our homes and businesses — use artificial intelligence (AI) more safely and smartly.

AI refers to computer systems that can learn and make decisions, similar to how humans think. In the energy industry, AI can help predict power demand, spot equipment problems before they break, and make the grid more efficient. However, using AI comes with challenges: companies need to make sure the technology is secure, reliable, and doesn't put customer data at risk.

The EmPOWER AI conferences will bring together experts, engineers, and business leaders from energy companies to share ideas and solutions. They'll discuss best practices for using AI safely, learn from each other's experiences, and work together on problems facing the entire industry. Think of it as a professional gathering where people in the energy business can connect and learn the latest ways to use AI responsibly.

This kind of collaboration matters for everyday people too. Better AI in the energy sector could mean more reliable power, lower bills, and a more efficient path toward renewable energy. By accelerating progress and sharing knowledge openly, the industry can move faster toward solving real-world challenges.
