"Legislation introduced by Rep. Jimmy Panetta, D-Calif., on May 7 is looking to update the Energy Act of 2020 by modifying and fortifying select energy storage programs and projects as the national demand for power increases amid growing reliance on artificial intelligence."
"The Better Energy Storage and Safety Act seeks to outfit the programs established in the Energy Act of 2020 with advanced data analytics, models and diagnostic tools to improve what the bill describes as the "safe installation and long-term operation of energy storage systems by abating expected failure modes" that could damage power storage systems."
"In addition to outfitting energy storage systems with better data tools to assess their functionality, the bill aims to improve the diagnostic, AI, computing and digital twin capabilities included in energy storage systems."
"The measure, known as the Strategic Export Controls and Border Security Enhancement Act, would direct the new office to craft a strategy for incorporating AI technologies - along with other advanced analytics tools - to help enhance its workflows and activities. Two of the use cases named in the bill include risk identification for customs enforcement in recipient countries."
Legislation introduced by Rep. Jimmy Panetta updates the Energy Act of 2020 by strengthening energy storage programs and projects as national power demand rises with increased artificial intelligence reliance. The Better Energy Storage and Safety Act adds advanced data analytics, models, and diagnostic tools to support safe installation and long-term operation of energy storage systems by reducing expected failure modes. The bill also targets improved diagnostic, AI, computing, and digital twin capabilities within energy storage systems. Rep. Ronny Jackson introduced a measure to create an Office of Export Controls and Border Security within the Department of State, directing it to develop a strategy for incorporating AI and advanced analytics into export control workflows. The bill includes customs enforcement risk identification use cases. House lawmakers also introduced companion geothermal legislation to expand research and development toward next-generation geothermal systems and commercialization.
