Energy transition, AI and the role of emerging economies

The world is changing; the energy transition is shaping markets, and the use of new clean energy sources is rapidly increasing, in the forms of renewable energy like wind, solar, hydro and other energy sources such as hydrogen, etc. In addition, AI is taking shape as both a challenge and an opportunity, allowing industries and governments to fully leverage many of its benefits on predictive maintenance and efficiency, whilst at the same time dealing with the challenges of data access and power usage.

Emerging economies play a crucial role in terms of economic growth, market expansion, global trade, innovation and investment; for emerging economies the energy transition will support their sustainable economic development and climate targets, and as they emerge, AI can help overcome developmental challenges, improve efficiency, and accelerate growth, advancing a more inclusive and equitable global economy.

Governments play a key role in setting policies to facilitate the transition as their actions can support the growth of new technologies, such as AI, and at the same time create frameworks for the wide adoption of low carbon energy sources.
