The Utility-AI Playbook: A Practitioner’s View from the Grid Edge

The Utility-AI Playbook: A Practitioner’s View from the Grid Edge

AI in utilities isn’t about replacing people—it’s about process, trust, and governance. The Utility-AI Playbook outlines seven steps to make intelligence utility-grade: start small, structure data, fine-tune, phase in, measure, govern, and evolve. Reliability remains human-led.

The Utility-AI Value Framework

The Utility-AI Value Framework

The Utility AI Value Framework helps utilities prioritize AI and GenAI by scoring reliability, renewables, cost, customer, compliance, and innovation. With 25 key use cases, it shows how priorities differ by utility type and context, while stressing data quality, workforce, and governance.

Fine-Tuning AI for the Grid: How Industry-Specific LLMs Are Transforming Utilities

Fine-Tuning AI for the Grid: How Industry-Specific LLMs Are Transforming Utilities

Utilities are adopting fine-tuned AI models trained on sector-specific data to avoid costly misinterpretations, integrate securely with grid systems, and deliver gains in reliability, efficiency, and decision-making that general-purpose LLMs cannot match.
