Iberdrola Embraces AI Technology for Reinforcing Power Line Durability
Woza Labs, a cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) company, is making waves in the industry by developing a carbon credit predictive layer. This innovation is set to replace the current simulations done by consulting services, marking a significant leap forward in environmental forecasting.
Founded by Sebastian Priolo and Fernando Tadakuma in late 2020, Woza Labs has been applying its core model and idea to various verticals, including the agri-food business, government services, and now, carbon credits. The predictive layer for carbon credits would allow companies across energy, logistics, and infrastructure to simulate project-level emissions based on spatial and design inputs.
The company's AI technology is not limited to carbon credits. Woza is also creating modular predictive "layers" or indexes that can be tailored to specific geographies and use cases. For instance, Woza initially developed a flood prediction layer for soybean and corn crops, but it is now gaining interest from urban governments.
One of the most notable achievements for Woza Labs came in 2022 when it won Iberdrola's challenge through its start-up program PERSEO. The challenge aimed to find a solution for making power lines more resilient against the effects of climate change and extreme weather. Woza's victory underscores the company's potential in the realm of adaptation technologies, which have been gaining traction as companies and governments grapple with the immediate consequences of climate change on their infrastructure and supply chains.
In addition to its work with Iberdrola, Woza has integrated private data from customers like Iberdrola to adapt a flexible digital twin and create software for the customer's specific needs. This approach allows Woza to provide tailored solutions that meet the unique requirements of each client.
Woza's latest innovation, the carbon credit predictive layer, is one of the new layers the company is creating for new verticals. The predictive layers can make predictions out to 30 years, offering a level of foresight that is invaluable in today's rapidly changing climate.
The company is also planning to create a predictive layer for energy-specific applications through a fundraising effort for an energy-only spin-off. Meanwhile, Woza is seeing attention from sectors that were not initially expected, such as the real estate industry. In an unexpected move, Woza closed a contract with a real estate client, demonstrating the versatility of its AI technology.
For those interested in learning more about adaptation technologies and power line resilience, the Power Resilience Forum 2026 will take place in Houston, TX from January 21-23, 2026. Early bird pricing for the event ends on October 1.
As Woza Labs continues to push the boundaries of AI technology, it is clear that its innovations will play a crucial role in helping businesses and governments adapt to the challenges posed by climate change.
