KOSPO is 1st Power Company in Korea to Build ‘Renewable Energy AI Learning Data’
Korea Southern Power Co. (KOSPO) became the nation’s first power company to set up AI learning data targeting renewable energy facilities.
It is predicted to accelerate the digital transformation of renewable energy facility operation and maintenance.
