Dr. Rui Bo, an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering, is developing artificial intelligence and computational methods to help hydropower plant operators manage water and energy resources more efficiently and potentially pass on savings to consumers, with a $750,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
For the two-year project, Bo will collaborate with researchers from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Colorado, as well as industry partners from Southwestern Power Administration and Western Area Power Administration.
