From jaw-droppingly large investments in AI data centres to exciting AI applications in many sectors, AI has been constantly in the news in 2025. But amidst all that news it can be hard to get a clear view on whether AI is actually being effectively applied to key challenges society faces, like decarbonisation.

Join Professor Emily Shuckburgh, Chief Scientific Advisor for the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero, and the ADViCE team as we unveil the inaugural State of AI for Decarbonisation report, tracking how UK applications of AI to decarbonisation challenges have matured over the last year. For each of the ADViCE grand challenges we’ll highlight where:

• AI has already started to deliver decarbonisation impact at scale
• AI has disappointed and progress has been slower than expected
• Early applied AI research has made progress that may deliver impact in future
• Policy, market, data or technology changes provide hints as to decarbonisation areas where AI may have momentum in 2026

Valuable for innovators, investors, industry and policy makers, this webinar will help you clearly understand the very latest in UK progress on AI for decarbonisation, and what you should be thinking about in 2026.

This webinar is organised by AI for Decarbonisation’s Virtual Centre of Excellence (ADViCE), a Department for Energy Security and Net Zero funded programme delivered by Digital Catapult, Energy Systems Catapult and the Alan Turing Institute.
