Juan Carlos Oviedo Cepeda, PhD
Research Scientist | Smart Grids & Buildings
As a Research Scientist at Hydro-Québec, I architect Agentic AI systems and Predictive Optimization to transform smart buildings into responsive grid assets. My work enables utilities to defer costly infrastructure investments and reduce blackout risk during the critical peaks created by the energy transition and extreme weather events. My research is driven by the conviction that decentralized intelligent systems across the grid and client side are the key to making sustainable energy resilient and economically accessible for everyone.
