Shaping tomorrow’s energy system with AI Meet the Hertie School team behind international Horizon Europe project AI-EFFECT, led by Professor Lynn Kaack at the Data Science Lab.

What if AI could make EU's energy systems more efficient?

That's what #AI-EFFECT Project is working toward.
At @hertieschool.bsky.social, Prof @lynnhkaack.bsky.social & her team are investigating how regulation enables or hinders AI deployment in energy.
