21 pages · PDF · 9.0 MB

Front cover of the Modo Energy guide "Putting AI to work in energy investment & renewable asset management"

Summary

How can energy finance teams put AI to work?

Energy investment and asset management teams can use AI to research markets, prepare investment committee briefings and draft portfolio reports. This 21-page guide from Modo Energy explains the inputs, instructions and checks for each task.

Start with a market question in Ko, work from your own documents and spreadsheets, or connect approved systems for recurring work. Choose the approach that fits the task and the tools your team can use.

Learn how to use Ko Skills and save a tested process as a reusable skill. Keep the sources, assumptions and review steps with the instructions so colleagues can repeat the work.

The final section covers your first pilot, team responsibilities and adoption: choose a task, name an owner and compare preparation time, review effort and the quality of the result.

Inside the guide

Three practical AI workflows for energy teams

Use these approaches together or start with one familiar task. Each chapter includes examples and checks.

01 · Pages 4 to 7

Research and understand

Use Ko to investigate energy markets and assets, compare battery revenues and configure a forecast for a specific project.

Prepare a market briefing

Specify the market and period. Follow the sources, check benchmark definitions and keep gaps visible.

02 · Pages 8 to 13

Produce repeatable work

Prepare a briefing from approved files, try a Ko Skill, or turn a tested process into instructions colleagues can reuse.

Draft an investment committee briefing

Compare assumptions with page or cell references. Save the template and checks; the deal lead owns the recommendation.

03 · Pages 14 to 17

Connect and automate

Connect the sources a portfolio report needs, then test and schedule the task in an application your team has approved.

Prepare a recurring portfolio report

Produce a reporting draft, source list and exception log. Test missing inputs and have the owner review before distribution.

A look inside

Build a process your team can reuse

An AI skill is a saved set of instructions for a particular task. It defines the inputs, the result to produce and the checks to make each time.

Preview the guide's Ko Skills and skill-sharing pages. Then use the pilot brief and team-adoption guidance on pages 18 to 20 to put a process into practice.

Tool access and sharing options depend on your plan and workspace settings.
