Webinar: Sovereign AI in Energy
Staying in Control of Electricity and Gas Networks
Tuesday 16 June 2026 | 9h00 - 10h00 (English)
This webinar has concluded, but you can still catch the next one.
The energy sector is entering a new phase of digitalization. From grid operations and asset management to load forecasting, Artificial Intelligence has transitioned from a peripheral experiment to a proven driver of grid resilience and market value. However, there is another side to the ledger: the AI being deployed today is overwhelmingly non-European. With three US hyperscalers accounting for over 65% of the cloud market, critical infrastructure operators face a massive challenge.
As more decisions, knowledge, and execution are mediated by AI, a critical question arises: what remains under the operator's own control?
For infrastructures that must keep electrons and molecules flowing without interruption, sovereignty over AI is no longer a matter of preference; it is a condition of resilience. Relying on public services or a single hyperscaler exposes critical networks to "cognitive dependency," silent data poisoning, unexpected outages, and volatile vendor pricing and sudden model deprecations with critically short migration windows.
This webinar takes a pragmatic, security-by-design look at AI sovereignty in the energy sector. We will explore how transmission and distribution operators, energy producers, and flexibility service providers can adopt cutting-edge AI capabilities without surrendering strategic autonomy.
After this session, you will:
- Understand AI sovereignty as a control framework: Move past server geography to look at what an operator must strictly govern across the model, agent, and retrieval layers.
- Balance productivity with resilience: Learn how to capture the massive efficiency gains of AI while avoiding irreversible vendor lock-in.
- Discover Privygen & Hybrid Architectures: See how to design modular environments that combine local private clouds and on-premise deployments to keep the lights on independently of third-party providers.
- Secure your development workflows: Learn how hosting AI coding agents locally guards against cognitive dependency, keeping your software workflows functional even during global cloud disruptions
