Wednesday, 29 October, 2025
Shrirang “Shri” Abhyankar—formerly at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Argonne National Laboratory—now serves as Grid Transformation Principal at ERCOT. In this episode, Shri explains how grid modeling, simulation, applied mathematics, and AI converge in real operations. We also explore the open-source tools his work helped shape, including Exascale Grid Optimization (ExaGO), ChatGrid, and Grid coPilot, and what these innovations mean for the future of grid planning and control.Shrirang AbhyankarPrincipal - AI & Optimization | IEEE senior memberhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/shrirang-abhyankar-59018144/some project linkshttps://www.pnnl.gov/publications/grid-modeling-tool-successfully-launches-worlds-fastest-supercomputerhttps://www.pnnl.gov/news-media/chatgridtm-new-generative-ai-tool-power-grid-visualizationhttps://www.preprints.org/manuscript/202504.1464
