About Brian Vukmir

I work at the intersection of energy infrastructure, large-scale data platforms, and artificial intelligence.Over the past decade I’ve helped utilities, regulators, and technology teams design and deploy data platforms that power the next generation of energy systems.My work has focused heavily on the Integrated Energy Data Resource (IEDR) — a statewide platform integrating utility, DER, and infrastructure datasets to accelerate clean-energy innovation and grid modernization.Through this work I’ve led initiatives involving:• Utility data ingestion and normalization• Green Button Connect deployments for customer energy data access• DER analytics and hosting capacity data integration• Energy market and tariff data platforms• Cross-stakeholder deployment across utilities, regulators, and technology providersI specialize in translating complex technical systems into real-world adoption and business outcomes, helping organizations move from experimentation to scalable deployment.AI Deployment & Applied AI Work• Designing AI-assisted workflows for analyzing large energy datasets• Experimenting with LLM-based analysis of utility and infrastructure data• Building early prototypes using OpenAI APIs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for structured data exploration• Evaluating how AI systems can assist stakeholders working with complex energy datasets• Exploring agent-based workflows to automate data discovery and insight generationAreas I’m particularly passionate about:• AI deployment in enterprise and infrastructure environments• Energy data platforms and APIs• Distributed energy resource analytics• Infrastructure intelligence and digital twins• AI-enabled decision systems for energy marketsI’m especially interested in connecting with people building AI platforms for real-world systems — energy, infrastructure, and large-scale data ecosystems.
