The Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-Württemberg (ZSW) is a non-university, non-profit research institute and has been working in the field of AI and Machine Learning for more than 25 years. Applications range from meteorology to modeling and optimization of processes and energy systems along the entire renewable energy value chain. The ZSW thereby supports the energy transition and increases energy efficiency potentials towards a climate-neutral energy supply.

Key research areas in the context of AI and machine learning are:
·    Feed-in forecasts for sun, wind and water
·    Monitoring and optimization of renewable energy systems
·    AI-based process optimization and monitoring for manufacturing of fuel cells, batteries, PV modules and electrolyzers
·    Anti-collision system with AI-based species recognition for protected bird species in the vicinity of wind turbines
·    Lifelong machine learning in Digital Twins
·    Webbased no-code AI application using AutoML - KI-Lab.EE
