AI in Energy Week Day Two - March 3, 2027

3:10 PM Case Study: From AI Possibility to Practical Application: Turning the "Why" into the "How"

After three days of AI use cases, technologies and lessons learned, the final challenge is turning those ideas into action. Drawing on real-world energy use cases, this case study will break down how to identify the right business problem, bring together the right data and expertise, select the appropriate AI approach and build a workflow that delivers a meaningful outcome

• Start with the "big why": defining the operational problem, desired outcome and value before deciding where AI fits
• Build the right workflow: combining prompts, model selection, proprietary and public data, and human expertise to move from question to trusted output. 
• Turn AI into something people can actually use: breaking down data and team silos, validating outputs and creating a repeatable framework that can be applied to real operational challenges.
