  AI-Driven Lightning Strike Prediction Using Polymer-Integrated Sensor Platforms for Climate-Resilient Energy Systems in India

  By Kusum Tharani, K. Sudha, Surinder Kaur, Manish Talwar, Neeraj Kumar

  Abstract: Lightning strikes are a major climate-related threat to India, resulting in severe human injuries as well as regular damages to the power transmission network and renewable energy infrastructure. This research aims to introduce the concept of an AI-based lightning strike prediction and mitigation system with the integration of polymers for making climate-resilient energy infrastructure. Multidata are collected based on satellite images, climate variables, as well as surface-based sensing modules, and …
