IBM And UNDP Launch New AI Solutions To Predict Energy Access

JAKARTA - IBM and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), launched a new interactive model for energy on the global UNDP platform, namely GeoHub.

"We are proud to introduce a solution that demonstrates the power of technology to have a positive impact on sustainability in our environment and communities," said Justina Nixon-Saintil, IBM Vice President and IBM Chief Impact Officer in a written statement.

Justina said that this solution utilizes technologies such as IBM watsonx AI and data platforms, which will help users to analyze complex energy issues through artificial intelligence (AI).

Not only that, this solution will also provide them with access to other solutions in data-based decision making to the energy transition.

As part of UNDP's Futures Exchange (DFx) data, Geohub provides a platform that provides convenience in uploading, visualizing and analyzing datasets, combining time-based and geographic data with satellite images.

GeoHub supports a granular, localized, and evidence-based approach to development and policy-making challenges, ranging from determining electricity access distributions, to assessing the level of community vulnerability to the impact of climate change.

"UNDP's innovative collaboration with IBM can help countries optimize the development of innovative data and technology to improve the quality of life and protect the planet", said spending the day, Head of the UNDP SDG Integration Team, UNDP Bureau for Policy and Program Support.

In fact,he emphasized that their solution has been trusted as the basis for helping countries make significant and tangible progress towards a fair energy transition.
