AI and innovation: Shaping the future
With growing complexity in global energy demands, AI’s role in predictive analytics, smart grids, and renewable energy integration has become indispensable. ENRich 2024 aims to provide a comprehensive platform to explore these leading innovations, featuring real-world applications developed by KPMG in India and select start-ups that have been an integral part of the ENRich journey.
This edition aims to highlight the intersection of AI and sustainability, showcasing how intelligent systems can reduce carbon footprints, improve energy efficiency, and advance sustainability. ENRich 2024 will feature keynote presentations, interactive discussions, and fireside chats, demonstrating AI's transformative impact on energy systems.
In addition to exploring technological innovations, ENRich 2024 will delve into the social and skilling impacts of integrating AI into energy systems. As these advancements reshape the industry, it is vital to address the implications for privacy, security, and workforce dynamics. The conclave will foster discussions around responsible AI frameworks and policies to promote inclusive and equitable growth.
Collaboration and future pathways
Our distinguished panel of speakers includes policymakers, industry experts, academicians, and technology leaders, bringing diverse expertise and insights. Together, we will explore new pathways for innovation, sustainability, and resilience, paving the way for a smarter, more efficient, and sustainable energy landscape.
While we cannot predict the future, by acknowledging challenges and harnessing innovation, we can co-create a broader understanding of the ‘art of the possible’ to solve our shared challenges in energy and the environment. This belief in collaboration inspired the creation of KPMG in India’s ENRich labs, established in response to industry leaders’ requests for more frequent engagement.
Over the past year, ENRich labs has served as a quarterly platform for co-creating clean energy solutions, fostering stronger partnerships, and addressing the pressing challenges of our time. The journey of collaboration and co-creation will continue through ENRich labs, which remains a vital forum for addressing the sector’s evolving challenges. The ENRich 2024 plenary aims to bring together the experts and industry leaders and mark a milestone in this eventful and truly enriching journey.
