November 6, 2025
The Interagency Advanced Power Group (IAPG) Electrical Systems Working Group (ESWG) Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) Panel Virtual Meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 6, 2025. The meeting is being held virtually in Microsoft Teams.
Meeting Goals
The IAPG emphasizes program coordination and dissemination of technical information to increase the effectiveness of government programs, avoid duplication, identify technology gaps, and maximize success in research efforts. The ESWG AI/ML Panel objective is to foster interagency information sharing related to the science of AI/ML as applied to power and energy system management, control, and design. This includes the exchange of any presently or newly established application requirements, capability gaps, and emerging AI/ML technologies, techniques in automated reasoning for intelligent energy systems as well as the integration of AI/ML into power and energy systems. This event is expected to largely focus on large language models (LLMs) and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).
Meeting Attendees – Please Review Carefully
Attendance at the ESWG AI/ML Panel virtual meeting is limited to U.S. citizens only.
- U.S. government employees, including Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA) assignees.
- On-site contractors at a government operated laboratory working under NDA. Employer is precluded from competing for open R&D solicitation (captive).
- Employees of Federally Funded R&D Centers (FFRDCs). This only includes employees of the FFRDC, not the administering entity. View the master list of FFRDCs.
- Government Contractors – those currently holding grants or contracts with a U.S. government agency. This would include both on-site and off-site performers.
- Academic Institutions – this would include those who have an existing Education Partnership Agreement (EPA), Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA), or performing R&D of interest to the Government [subject to validation by a current ESWG member].
Meeting Registration
Pre-registration is required. The deadline for registration is October 29, 2025.
Overall Agenda
While the agenda is preliminary and subject to change, the AI/ML Panel leaders have planned the following overall agenda:
Time (EST) | Description |
---|---|
1040–1050 | Meeting login, sound/video tests |
1050–1100 | IAPG Welcome/Introductions |
1100–1300 | AI/ML Tutorial Presentations |
1300–1345 | Break |
1345–1400 | Meeting login, sound/video tests |
1400–1500 | Moderated Panel/Fire Side Chat with Technical Experts |
1500–1645 | AI/ML Application Presentations |

Session Overview
The meeting is expected to be composed of both a morning and afternoon session. The morning session is broken down into three sub-sessions:
- IAPG Overview & Introductions: A brief introduction to IAPG ESWG and the AI/ML Panel.
- LLM/GenAI Fundamentals: A presentation covering the foundational concepts of large language models (LLMs) and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).
- LLM Development & Implementation: Tutorials on LLM development and implementation, including data requirements, common architectures, layer operation, and application similarities (commercial & governmental – examples need not be specific to electrical systems).
The afternoon session is broken down into two sub-sessions:
- Expert Panel/Fireside Chat: A moderated discussion to continue knowledge transfer between presenters and attendees.
- LLM Applications & Best Practices: Presentations detailing specific LLM applications – including AI/ML agents (chatbots) and data analysis – with a preference for those related to electrical or power systems. Other relevant LLM applications will also be considered.
