Over het evenement

AI has moved to the forefront of innovation discussions, with promises of transformation across industries. However, its rapid rise has brought with it a frenzy of speculative enthusiasm driving significant investments in companies developing AI solutions and infrastructure to support them. For energy companies, AI presents a dual challenge and opportunity: As enablers of AI-driven innovation, they power the massive infrastructure supporting this technology but also must anticipate and adapt to its evolving energy needs.  

This Lux Forum will bring together thought leaders and experts to explore the relationship between AI and the energy sector. Through keynotes and presentations, we’ll examine the long-term impacts of AI on energy demand and infrastructure, identify emerging trends, and provide actionable insights for positioning businesses to thrive in this era of rapid change. At this Forum, we plan to discuss: 

  • Understanding the AI bubble: Learn how current investment trends and the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure may shape the energy and other industries. 
  • Meeting data center demand: Explore how energy companies can address the growing power needs of data centers. 
  • Unlocking industrial opportunities: Discover opportunities for industrial integration, such as leveraging data center byproducts like heat and CO2, to create innovative co-location strategies. 
  • Assessing carbon capture innovators: Gain insights into the latest advances in carbon capture technologies and their intersection with AI — both supporting and using it. 

 

Join us in Houston as we cut through the AI hype to uncover its real implications for the energy sector.

Beyond the Bubble in AI: Finding Real Opportunities for Energy Investment

Few technologies since the advent of mobile devices have promised the vast cross-industry impact that we see today from AI. Whether professionally or personally we’re constantly engaging with AI. But is it helpful, and will it last? Can AI companies actually make money? What should the energy industry actually do about the growth of AI?

In this discussion, Lux will share our answers to these questions and identify where we think energy companies can support its growth.

Meeting Data Center Demand with Low-Carbon Power 

Demand for electricity is rising for the first time in decades. It’s also coming at a time when utilities are trying to change the way we generate power and manage electricity networks delivering that power.

In this discussion, Lux will share its most recent work around load growth and take a deep dive into how energy will be sourced for emerging data centers.

Maximizing Human-Centric Innovation: From Insights to Action

Human-centric innovation isn’t just a buzzword; it’s an approach that deeply understands and prioritizes human needs, behaviors, and aspirations and a powerful strategy for achieving market dominance, driving exponential growth, and skyrocketing profitability.

This strategy acknowledges that, while technology and data are vital, the essence of successful innovation lies in human creativity, decision-making, and ethical considerations. By focusing on the human element, organizations can develop solutions that resonate with their audiences, ensuring long-term success and relevance in an AI-driven world.

This session will outline and demonstrate practical steps and the tools our clients are leveraging to execute core Lux Innovation Model stages to take a truly human-centric approach to innovation.
