Germany Is Using AI to Smooth the Fluctuations in Its Power Grid

Renewable energy like solar and wind power are changing the way we generate electricity. Our energy production is becoming cleaner and cheaper, and in many countries renewables are starting to overtake fossil fuels as the primary power source. But one of the biggest problems with renewables has yet to be solved: what happens if it's cloudy? More specifically, the problem is that renewable energy sources can never provide a constant source of power. No matter how many solar panels you build, they all provide zero power when the sun goes down.
