The sixteenth version of Bosphorus Summit, with Euronews as official press sponsor, concluded on Friday after two days of panels and conferences that noticed intense brainstorming on geopolitical points by distinguished figures that included high-ranking officers from a number of nations, businesspeople and journalists.
Laura Buckwell, a Euronews journalist primarily based in Dubai, moderated a panel titled “Way forward for Energy: Vitality, Innovation and Technique” which was joined by a number of high-profile businesspeople.
Among the many panelists have been Birol Ergüven, Member of the Board at Istanbul-based Limak Vitality Group; Zeynep Harezi, Group Head of Business Operations and Board Member of Karpowership, a Turkish operator of powerships; and Mehmet Ali Neyzi, Board Member of Wavegenx, which produces onshore ocean energy techniques powered by synthetic intelligence (AI).
Talking first, Harezi stated that Karpowership determined to develop into the power sector in 2007 “with one thing that has not been carried out earlier than with a world floating energy era fleet.”
Emphasising the time period “powerships,” she stated that they ship these into greater than 20 nations globally.
“In some nations, we are literally offering 100% of the electrical energy used there. And in some nations we’re offering 25 to 30%.”
Harezi additional added that their work mannequin is “principally constructing typical energy land-based energy vegetation inside ships and constructing them prematurely in order that they are often despatched to the host nation inside a few days.”
Wavegenx’s Mehmet Ali Neyzi underlined that AI has been the spine of their work and that they “have been capable of develop our ocean and wave energy expertise by means of predictive evaluation.”
Earlier than the age of AI, the waves and currents have been too unpredictable to work, Neyzi stated.
“It is an untapped market,” he stated, underlining that their applied sciences characterize an unprecedented approach of utilizing AI.
Limak’s Birol Ergüven, in remarks to Euronews after the panel, stated “There are a lot of fields the place AI could be utilized. Authorized departments, individuals working in analysis and improvement, journalism and all different fields conceivable.”

“Over time, they’ve begun to make use of it increasingly more of their work. That is one facet of the job,” Ergüven added.
Talking in regards to the technical facet of issues, the businessman emphasised using AI in energy vegetation.
“How can we use it in our energy vegetation? It goes like this: all the info is amassed from an influence plant, which in itself is a construction with hundreds of sensors. It is consistently monitored, and these are monitored utilizing extra conventional algorithms to assemble details about the plant’s standing,” he added.
“AI has the power to interpret extra indicators from this sea of knowledge than you’ll be able to with fastened algorithms. Naturally, that is what we’re engaged on proper now,” Ergüven stated.
“We’re additionally utilizing AI to know the well being of all of the panels in solar energy vegetation. We’re attempting to apply it to a bigger scale. It is inevitable. As I discussed, we now have such an efficiency-enhancing instrument at our disposal.”
