Reimagining Energy with Generative and Agentic AI – From Insight to Intelligent Action

15 April, 2026
1:30 PM - 430 PM
Dubai, UAE
Workshop Schedule
Reimagining Energy with Generative and Agentic AI – From Insight to Intelligent Action

▸ By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

▸ Identify high-impact Generative AI and Agentic AI use cases across the energy value chain.

▸ Understand production-grade AI architecture for energy environments (IT/OT integration).

▸ Design a practical AI strategy and 12-month roadmap.

▸ Implement guardrails for safety, governance, and compliance.

▸ Develop measurable business cases for AI deployment.

Learning Outcomes
Workshop Agenda
Session 1: Opening & Audience Calibration

▸ Difference between predictive AI, optimization, digital twins, GenAI.

▸ What agentic AI means: goal-driven orchestration and tool use.

▸ Assistive → Human-in-the-loop → Semi-autonomous systems

Session 2: High-Impact Use Cases Across the Energy Value Chain

▸ Asset performance & predictive maintenance copilots.

▸ Grid & plant operations optimization.

▸ Engineering documentation & knowledge copilots.

Customer service & revenue assurance automation.

▸ESG & compliance reporting automation.

▸Interactive table exercise: classify use cases by autonomy level.

Session 3: Agentic AI Design Patterns

▸ Copilot → Co-worker → Crew model.

▸ Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for grounded outputs.

▸ Tool-using agents integrating SCADA, EAM, GIS, CRM systems.

▸Policy-as-code guardrails and human approvals.

▸Common failure modes and risk mitigation.

Session 4: Production-Grade AI Architecture for Energy

▸ Data layer: time-series, asset data, weather, documents.

▸ Model layer: domain models + GenAI.

▸ Orchestration layer: workflow engines and agent routers.

▸Trust layer: cyber security, identity, OT/IT segregation.

▸Observability: cost, latency, hallucination metrics.

Session 5: AI Strategy for Energy Leaders

▸ Define north-star business outcomes (reliability, OPEX, emissions).

▸ Balanced portfolio: 70% near-term, 20% augmentation, 10% moonshots.

▸ AI operating model and governance.

90-day, 6-month, 12-month roadmap.

Session 6: Closing Blueprint: First 90 Days

Select one measurable, bounded use case.

▸ Define KPIs (MTTR, truck rolls avoided, reporting cycle time).

▸ Establish guardrails and approvals.

▸Final principle: Start with workflow + metric + boundary.
