Total partners with Google to deploy AI-powered solar energy tool

#artificialintelligence

French energy company Total has developed a tool to determine solar energy's potential of rooftops. Partnering with Google Cloud, the tool will help popularise the deployment of solar energy panels in households. The tool Solar Mapper uses artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to extract data from satellite images. AI helps facilitates sharper and quicker estimation of solar energy potential than present tools, the company said in an official statement. The tool will also guide households to understand what technology would need to be installed depending on solar energy requirements.
