This report explores how AI makes a difference at every stage of the process:

1) Generation: Whether turbines are turned by coal, gas, wind, or water, it all starts here. AI can help with every aspect, from predictive maintenance of machinery to powerful cyber defenses for nuclear systems.
2) Distribution: With millions of miles of lines bringing electricity and gas to communities around the country, keeping the power on is essential. AI can help optimize flows in and out, connect sensors that report issues, combat leaks, and manage the landscape around power lines effectively.
3) Consumption: Users have never had more power, in every sense of the word. AI gives them access to cheaper electricity through smart tariffs, lets them connect solar panels to add power to the grid, and optimizes EV charging.
