This winter may see energy crisis in Europe again as
Russian energy provision to the EU region will be limited depending on the ongoing
situation of the Ukrainian war. While
Germany shifted its basic energy policy from the usage of fossil fuel to that
of renewable energy such as solar and wind, it seems to take certain years to substantially
meet with needed demand. Maybe, there is
a possibility that U.S. president Trump sends a direct call to EU heads for
selling American oil and gas in emergency. Is there any idea to avoid such a seasonal energy crisis? Currently, while a boon on AI datacenter
construction has been continuing over the world, another trend to strengthen
renewable energy optimization using AI is going on. For instance, a tracking system in solar and
wind power system linked to AI technology would predict a way of being of
renewable energy for the future. It is often
said that renewable energy business does not contribute to economic development
explosively. However, such preconception
is possible to be wrong. As to the energy
business in fossil fuel, exploited quantity, high quality and adjusted price
are key factors to bring economic effect. I wonder if those factors can be optimized in combination between AI
technology and sporadic appearance of sunlight, wind, so on. In other words, an effective measure of
high-precise exploitation of new energy would be realized by AI-base (or
quantum technology possible) calculation. Regarding the mentioned energy crisis in Europe, why EU leaders do not
discuss about how to utilize AI for solving reiterated energy shortage? Do they prefer a lick of each other’s unfortunate
wound to serious practical debate for our future society? The most important thing to change the present
world is to have a good motivation. That
mind does not lead to escape economic crisis in a political way but to gaze severe
fact and have a resolute will to change the situation practically. In the past times, human beings were forced to
face tremendous difficulties at unavoidable events and accidents from time to
time. But our ancestors overcame them each
time. As history proves, we should fully
utilize our brain with resolve for producing safe and reliable world by our own
hand. Do not escape into a blind
alley. We shall open a door to a new
world! (Takashi Higashi, President, TCS)
