全球安全科學領域的專家 UL Solutions 宣布推出《AI 模型透明度指標》計畫，旨在化解大眾對於人工智慧 (AI) 可靠性、安全性及道德影響等方面的疑慮，並推動「負責任」的人工智慧發展。 AI 系統是根據數據與過去行為進行學習與做出決策的編程軟體，其使用數據和指令來生成文字、預測並做出建議。UL Solutions 全新推出的《AI 模型透明度指標 (AI Model Transparency Benchmark)》計畫，專注於評估 AI 模型的透明度，亦即了解AI 系統如何下決策並產出特定結果的能力。 透過數據管理、模型開發、安全性、部署及道德考量等關鍵領域的檢視，這項指標評估可為 AI 系統的透明度與可信度，提供一個清晰客觀的評等，進而為產品的行銷宣告進行驗證。一旦產品確認符合評等，即可貼附 UL AI 模型透明度驗證標誌 (UL Verified Mark)。 「由於人工智慧具有對商業與社會做出革命性變革的潛力，因此必須以『負責任』的方式予以開發和部署，」UL Solutions 首席科學家 Robert Slone 博士表示，「在驗證 AI 系統的構建是否充分考量完整性、隱私和問責性方面，《AI 模型透明度指標》是一個重要的工具。 」 如今具 AI 系統輔助的電子產品，很明顯地能讓消費者享有容易上手的優勢。然而，儘管有越來越多的消費性產品開始整合 AI 技術，但要讓 AI真正地發揮潛力，消費者必須對這些裝置的安全運作擁有足夠信心。根據史丹佛大學的 2024 AI Index 年度報告*1，52% 的美國人表示對 AI感到更加擔憂，而非興奮。 《AI 模型透明度指標》即可用來驗證產品的行銷宣告，為製造商以及正考慮使用 AI 產品的消費者建立信任感。 受評估的AI系統所獲的評級分數為 0 到 100 分，得分越高代表透明度越高。50 分或更低的分數，就會被視為「未受評等」，表示有極為顯著的透明度問題。51 至 60 分評等為銀級，屬於中透明度。61 至 70 分評等為金級，屬於高透明度。71 至 80 分評等為白金級，屬於極高透明度。81 以上的得分為鑽石級，屬於最高透明度。 「身為安全科學、測試和檢驗的全球專家，我們在幫助製造商自信將創新產品推向市場並建立消費者對新技術的信任上，擁有豐富的經驗，」Slone強調，「《AI 模型透明度指標》提供的標準化框架和評級系統，可以評估 AI 系統，幫助企業與消費者在採用及使用AI產品時，能夠有所依據，進而做出明智的決定。」 *1 Measuring Trends in AI, Stanford University, 2024.

長期致力於汽車與行動載具安全的全球安全科學專家UL Solutions，今年首次參與《台北國際汽機車零配件展 & 台北國際車用電子展》，全方位介紹橫跨汽車動力系統、電子元件、零配件與材料類產品全產品生命週期的安全、性能、與永續解決方案，以及其結合台灣在地、亞太及全球營運據點的服務量能，協助供應商以更佳的產品開發流程，攫取嶄新的汽車產業變革商機。 台北國際汽機車零配件展於 4 月 17 日至 20 日在南港展覽館 1 館登場。展會將展示汽車售後服務的零組件產業，包括汽車零件、底盤系統、電氣設備、車架、引擎與汽車零件等。 隨著汽車產業持續的快速發展，以及自動化、電動化及互聯性的技術加持，車輛零配件與電子系統的需求與設計已全面革新，為汽車業者帶來挑戰和商機。 同時，由於每輛車的電子產品使用量以及互聯汽車數量急遽增加，車輛越來越容易受到駭客攻擊，因而推動了 2023 年全球汽車網路安全市場規模約 36.6 億美元，預估到 2032 年達 164.3 億美元*註1。因此，想要快速打進市場供應鏈，零配件供應商勢必要將車輛零組件的安全認證及相關規範，納入營運的重點。 「汽車產業持續快速發展，消費者期望和技術的躍進成為這些變化的催化劑，」UL Solutions 副總裁暨台灣總經理陳宗弘表示，「隨著車輛產品和流程的轉型，產業不斷尋求創新的方法來支援自主性技術、互聯性、電氣化以及共享移動的發展，UL Solutions 已準備好幫助車廠、供應商和汽車技術新創公司的創新產品能夠安全上路，提升效率、並加快產品上市的速度。」 UL Solutions 在台灣耕耘已超過 35 年，在台北、桃園、新竹等地擁有先進完備的檢測設備及實驗室，能為國內汽車零配件供應商提供在地測試與安全評估，同時亦提供產品安全、資訊安全以及永續環保相關的諮詢服務。 展會期間，UL Solutions (攤位 #K0126) 將展示汽車全產品的測試、檢驗、認證、諮詢服務；並於「車輛安全專區」，提供動力系統、電子元件類、零配件與材料類產品的安全諮詢，以及車載乙太網產品的現場測試。此外，UL Solutions 將於 4 月 18 日上午，主持《解讀國際電動車充電設備的趨勢與安全發展》主題座談，以及在 4 月 19 日下午的大型論壇，由來自法國的工程材料事業部全球業務總監 Cyril Mancel 主講《電動車工程材料與零配件的市場趨勢和商機》。 *註1〈Automotive Cybersecurity Market Size To Hit USD 16.43 Bn By 2032〉，Precedence Research，2023年3月
Energy professionals can now perform detailed, holistic modeling of most major electricity markets in front-of-the-meter systems worldwide. BOULDER, Colo., March 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- UL Solutions, a global leader in applied safety science, announced the release of the new 1.0 version of HOMER® Front software, adding expanded performance and financial forecasting capabilities to the subscription-based online application for designing, optimizing and maximizing the revenue and return on investment of complex utility-scale energy storage, solar, wind and hybrid systems. UL Solutions has released the new 1.0 version of HOMER® Front software, adding expanded performance and financial forecasting capabilities for designing, optimizing and maximizing the revenue and return on investment of complex utility-scale energy storage, solar, wind and hybrid systems. With the new capabilities in HOMER Front software version 1.0, battery energy storage system (BESS) stakeholders can model most electricity markets worldwide, including frequency regulation, capacity markets, real-time energy markets, and contractual power purchase agreements with specific time-of-delivery obligations. Power plant owners and operators increasingly rely on frequency regulation to balance electricity supply and demand, stabilize voltage frequency and prevent power outages — particularly as more renewable energy generation is deployed. BESS stores and dispatches these variable energy resources to provide frequency regulation. This ancillary service represents a significant additional revenue stream for energy storage projects — whether as standalone or hybrid systems that include solar and wind. Recent valuations sized the ancillary services market at $7.6276 billion (USD) in 2020, with a projected $13.044 billion (USD) by 2028, a compound annual growth of nearly 8%.1 "Developers told us they needed a way to perform quick, easy, but detailed modeling of frequency regulation as a revenue stream, and spreadsheets are not adequate. By quickly performing complex operations, HOMER Front software provides a better tool to help develop reliable performance and financial forecasts. We're delighted to introduce v1.0 to empower system developers to save time, maximize project value and be confident in the results, especially when pursuing project financing," said Chakradhar Byreddy, director of the Renewables group at UL Solutions. The software bases the value of frequency regulation on a user-selected energy futures price strip — a financial instrument that locks in energy prices for specific time frames and is readily available through trusted online databases. The user enters the maximum energy capacity that can be reserved for frequency regulation and the minimum price required for participation. HOMER Front software then simulates real-time bidding behavior, committing energy capacity to various markets and maximizing revenue within user-defined constraints. "The user decides at what price it's worth participating in frequency regulation services and can run a sensitivity analysis to find the right price point to maximize revenue potential. These are powerful tools that help our users customize dispatch strategies and see the techno-economic implications in real time," said Byreddy. As a web-based application, HOMER Front software eliminates download and installation and can be used on most operating systems. The simple, intuitive user interface enables robust modeling for multiple revenue streams, system size, battery dispatch and augmentation strategies. Sensitivity analysis helps users evaluate technical and financial performance as key parameters fluctuate — such as solar irradiance, wind speeds or energy market prices. Version 1.0 includes support for all major monetary currencies. The new integrated, customizable battery library gives users more control over which battery they model and provides detailed inputs needed to replicate commercially available batteries. Originally developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, HOMER software has performed project calculations globally. Learn more about HOMER Front modeling software.
