As global population increases and the rate of industrialization across the developing world accelerates, the problems of energy efficiency and climate change loom ominously. One thing that may be able to keep externalities caused by urbanization in check, are emerging technologies like artificial intelligence. A recent report from Technavio for instance, projects that global AI in the energy market will grow by $6.06 billion USD from 2019-2023. An analysis from Frost & Sullivan highlights some of the benefits of this trend. In the analysis, Swagath Navin Manohar, Research Analyst, Energy & Environment, outlines how AI can reduce energy waste in electricity and other sectors by providing better consumption data:

"In addition to making the electricity system intelligent and flexible, AI algorithms help utilities and energy companies understand and optimize consumer behavior and manage energy consumption across different sectors. Meanwhile, complex machine learning algorithms combined with real-time weather data from satellites, ground-based observation, and climate models can be used to forecast the electricity generated by RES like wind, solar, and ocean."

Multinational automation company ABB Ltd. (NYSE:ABB) is already putting some of these ideas into practice with their Industrial AI Accelerator program, aimed at supporting startups using AI to solve industrial challenges. The co-founder of one of those startups (Greenlytics), Sebastian Haglund El Gaidi, explained how working with ABB makes it possible to leverage AI in the service of a more efficient power grid:

“The conversations with ABB helped us realize the different areas where we can combine our capabilities and create technological synergies. Collaborating with ABB will help further develop our vision of tomorrow’s increasingly renewable, distributed and smarter grid. We already learned a lot about not only the technology but also the potential market and customer needs – and that is really important for a startup, especially in a B2B context.”

An article on The Next Web emphasizes the role AI has in identifying patterns in energy consumption data that can be used to better regulate how scarce resources like electricity can be distributed. The piece quotes Henrik Brink, the founder of Ento Labs, a company fighting climate change with artificial intelligence:

“Energy efficiency is the only really direct way of lowering emissions. And according to our initial research, there’s a huge opportunity for lowering emissions. There’s so many low hanging fruits of companies and industries that can be optimized a lot.”

A company applying this insight in a big way is Universal mCloud Corp. (OTC:MCLDF) (TSXV:MCLD), whose AssetCare platform combines AI with IoT and cloud computing technology and has found application in various markets. A key recent development has been the announcement that AssetCare connectivity has been established for the Heiwado Shopping Center in Changsha, Hunan Province, China. Done in collaboration with mCloud partner SCN Ltd., this will see management of the mall’s stores’ HVAC systems using AI and analytics, which will deliver ongoing energy savings, curbing the costly 41 percent of energy currently used by Heiwado for heating and cooling.

Furthermore, mCloud collaborates with Britwind, an affiliate of UK’s Ecotricity, to apply AssetCare analytics to improve wind turbine availability and extend the health of wind turbines in Europe and China, and mcloud is also collaborating with Fulcrum Automation Technologies on a plan to target at least 200 oil and gas assets as part of a greater strategy to access thousands of field assets in North America and the Middle East.

Semiconductor manufacturer Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (NasdaqGS:MRVL) last year demonstrated its AI SSD Controller powered by Deep Learning Accelerator technology from NVIDIA. The related press release stresses the cost-saving features of the tech via “improving efficiency, reducing power consumption, maximizing scalability and optimizing distribution of resources,” Noam Mizrahi, VP of Technology and Architecture at Marvell, said:

“Our advanced AI SSD controller proof of concept solution sets a new paradigm in utilizing available system resources more efficiently, resulting in the scalable, cost-effective data storage expected for all kinds of machine learning tasks."

Raven Industries, Inc. (NasdaqGS:RAVN) reduces operating costs and improves yields using precision agriculture technology. Last year, the company partnered with Dot Technology Corp., an autonomous agriculture platform leader, to “power the autonomous farming solutions of the future”. The Raven tech-based DOT Power Platform “completes tasks autonomously and enables farmers to spend more of their time focusing on the overall operation of their farms.”

So though greater industrialization across the globe creates challenges to energy consumption and environmental sustainability, it also seems to be yielding the very technologies, such as AI and automation that are required to assuage them.

Point Roberts WA, Delta BC – March 26, 2019 - Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks continues with our two part series on how the growing cannabis market is boosting ancillary markets, with part two focusing specifically on acquisitions in the cannabis sector.

According to a recent Forbes article, “most of the businesses growing, processing and selling cannabis across the United States are small independently-held entities. That may change in 2019 which looks like a big year for industry mergers, acquisitions and expansion. Large companies, like those in the food, tobacco and pharmaceutical industries have mostly stayed on the sidelines, held back by regulatory concerns, but are now expected to enter the market. The cannabis industry still has a mom and pop feel but that could change rapidly.”

Canopy Growth Corp. (NYSE: CGC) (TSX: WEED) is a strong example of one such larger company making acquisitions, having recently acquired AgriNextUSA, a hemp enterprise led by CEO, Geoff Whaling, that has been at the forefront of hemp advocacy and building a vibrant hemp sector in the US. The acquisition is expected to accelerate Canopy Growth's entry into key American jurisdictions as regulations surrounding the full use of hemp as a crop implementation.

SinglePoint (OTC: SING), a company with a focus on acquiring companies that will benefit from the injection of growth capital and technology integration in mobile payments, ancillary cannabis services and blockchain solutions, has been very busy making recent acquisitions in Cannabis and most recently solar, all which could benefit their cannabis division was featured in Part One of this series.

The company offers mobile Web checkout gateway services which allow mobile users to purchase goods and services directly from Web-enabled mobile phones through credit or debit cards. It also sells hemp products through SingleSeed.com, supplies hydroponic supplies and nutrients to commercial and individual farmers through retail and online stores. SinglePoint, Inc. was founded in 2007 and is based in Phoenix, Arizona.

Harvest Health and Recreation (OTC: HRVSF) (CSE: HARV) recently announced that it would buy competitor Verano Holdings for $850 million in an all-stock deal, marking the largest US cannabis deal to date. The combined company will be one of the country's largest multi-state operators, presiding over as many as 200 facilities in 16 states.

Steve White, the co-founder and CEO of Harvest, commented on the state of the market in a recent CNBC article. "Presently, we're in a phase that people are referring to it as a land grab," White told CNBC's ’Fast Money.’ "We plan on ... developing the largest retail footprint, the largest retail platform, in the United States, and with this acquisition, I think we've done that."

Green Thumb Industries Inc. (CSE: GTII) (OTC: GTBIF) also recently announced the closing of the acquisition of For Success Holding Company, the Los Angeles-based creator of the lifestyle suite of Beboe branded cannabis products.

Beboe is the leader in luxury cannabis whose mission is to ‘destigmatize’ legal cannabis through heightened experience and education. Beboe is best known the thoughtful design aesthetic of its iconic rose gold vaporizing pens and edible pastilles, and each product is curated with a unique blend of socially dosed THC and CBD. Beboe is currently available in more than 125 retail locations in California and Colorado and via home delivery across California. In 2018, Beboe launched a direct-to-consumer hemp-derived CBD line of products and introduced several collaborations, including a CBD-infused drink with wellness brand Dirty Lemon.

In early 2019, Barneys New York announced an exclusive partnership with Beboe for a first-of-its-kind luxury cannabis lifestyle and wellness concept shop, “The High End.” The shop will debut at Barneys’ Beverly Hills flagship location in March, with plans to expand to additional locations in the near future. The collaboration includes exclusive, special edition packaging and a silver Beboe vaporizer pen in celebration of the project. With the acquisition by GTI, Beboe products will become available beyond California and Colorado with distribution in select markets.

This “land grab” momentum is expected to continue through 2019 as the cannabis sector expands and consolidates within its own sector and with its ancillary markets. This may mean that the companies making early acquisitions will have a much better chance of success in the market.

The #AIEYE: #AI Saving Money and Promoting Efficiency in #Energy Sector: (NYSE: $GE) (TSXV: $MCLD.V) (OTCQB: $MCLDF) (NYSE: $EXC) (NASDAQ: $SPWR)

Point Roberts WA, Vancouver BC – March 26, 2019 – Investorideas.com, a global investor news source covering Artificial Intelligence issues a special edition of The AI Eye, looking at how AI will play a significant role in clean energy and energy efficiency.

As clean and efficient energy becomes increasingly important to consumers from ongoing environmental concerns, and in the interest of affordability, more and more companies look to employ AI and machine learning technology to keep abreast with demand.

Veteran multinational General Electric (NYSE:GE), through its utility analytics digital energy solutions combines AI with state-of-the-art machine learning capabilities to “deliver predictive and prescriptive insights.” In an article on Utility Dive on data analytics in the power sector, GE Power Digital Senior Director of Data and Analytics, Matt Schnugg said: "Data is a linchpin of our collective energy future.”

“Data analytics is already improving utilities' asset performance and is beginning to improve customer engagement. But the automated and integrated system that will enable peak performance, energy networks, and connected communities are still to come. The next step is "enabling advanced analytics" and incorporating it into AI processing "at hyperscale," GE's Schnugg said.

Another way AI technology is being leveraged is in the streamlining of alternative sources of energy, such as wind. Analytics India quotes Google DeepMind researchers in a recent article, on how they have increased efficiency through machine learning:

“Although we continue to refine our algorithm, our use of machine learning across our wind farms has produced positive results. To date, machine learning has boosted the value of our wind energy by roughly 20 percent, compared to the baseline scenario of no time-based commitments to the grid.”

Similar innovation can be seen by Universal mCloud Corp., (TSXV:MCLD) (OTCQB:MCLDF) which was recently named as one of TSX Venture Exchange’s top performing startups in the technology sector. The company has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Ecotricity affiliate Britwind Ltd. which will see Universal mCloud upgrade the latter’s wind turbines with AI and analytics. Called rEsolve, the upgrade enhances the operation of Britwind’s 1,000 Endurance E-series turbines alongside a 5-year warranty. mCloud’s Chief Growth Officer, Costantino Lanza commented:

“mCloud’s expertise in AI and analytics for wind applications complements Britwind’s strengths in the manufacturing and maintenance of wind turbines,” said Costantino Lanza, mCloud’s Chief Growth Officer, who is also leading mCloud’s activities in the Smart Wind segment. “Our AssetCare™ for Wind solution will connect Britwind turbines to help their customers achieve peak performance.”

But it’s not only wind energy that is benefiting from the application of AI capabilities. A report from Research and Markets projects that the solar power market in the Americas, for instance, is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.2 percent between 2018-2022 in terms of total installed capacity in select countries. A piece from nanalyze looking at AI in renewable energy highlights SunPower Corporation (NasdaqGS:SPWR), and how it is leveraging AI and other technologies:

“The Silicon Valley-based company recently built a new solar research facility. One of the key tools at the new $25 million facility involves quality control over the photovoltaic cell manufacturing process. AI is used to analyze the process to not only ensure a quality product, but to provide new insights to improve the technology over time. Incidentally, SunPower is embracing all kinds of emerging technology, including the use of drones to survey potential solar power farm sites in order to create more efficient designs. No doubt engineers will employ machine learning there as well, maybe through HST Solar or just buy the startup outright.”

Elsewhere, Constellation, an Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) employs third-party Pear.ai’s “virtual energy agent”, Sam, to converse with customers, allowing them to ask questions and gain insights regarding energy costs. Chris Buzby, Senior Manager of Corporate Strategy, Innovation, and Sustainability at Exelon wrote in a Constellation blog post earlier this year:

“Constellation is looking at AI to decrease our customers’ energy costs and to optimize the many tasks they perform on a regular basis. As we think about the cost for our customers, it is easy to just think about the price per kilowatt-hour, but we know our customers think about more than just that number. They are interested in ways to be more efficient or to decrease capacity costs and other energy-related costs.”

Though surely still in the earliest stages of adoption, AI can already be seen to have made gains for both wind and solar energy markets with data analytics, as well as on the consumer-end, helping to both reduce costs and promote greater energy efficiency.
