Silurian CEO, Jayesh K. Gupta, will deliver testimony before the US House Subcommittee on Environment, outlining how foundation models are transforming the future of weather forecasting.
When rime ice brings down a transmission line, it's already too late. Traditional weather models can't see it coming—they forecast regions, not assets. Our collaboration with Hydro-Québec validates that a weather foundation model like GFT can deliver day-ahead rime-ice alerts with 0.72 average precision, reducing expected dispatch costs while providing operators with actionable 72-hour warnings.

Silurian and Hydro-Québec partner up to train Silurian’s Generative Forecasting Transformer (GFT) on utility-grade grid observation data to capture asset-level details and provide early warnings for catastrophic icing events. These results were recently presented at a CIGRE 2025 keynote.
