Green Energy Companies Network - The US Energy Information Agency (EIA) defines renewable energy as an energy source that regenerates naturally, such as solar or wind. In contrast, fossil fuels are considered finite. The EIA reports that in 2016, 10 percent of US energy consumption was sourced from renewable energy sources. This is roughly equivalent to "10.2 quadrillion British thermal units (Btu) -1 quadrillion. 1 is after number 15 zeros". Despite the increasing use of renewable energy as the leading global source of electricity in 2015, there are still persistent barriers to widespread implementation related to policy and technology. Researchers and companies are exploring how artificial intelligence can help improve the access and efficiency of renewable energy technology. In this article, we present examples of renewable energy technologies that incorporate AI. We cover three major categories of renewable energy that should be of interest to business leaders in the gr
