Summit sessions - Digitalisation - Democratizing Energy
Stream location
Elicium 2Introduction
Three disruptions are threatening to put an end to the utility model as we know it:
- Market disruptions as zero-marginal cost decentralized energy sources destabilize power markets and make centralized generation and transmission assets stranded;
- Technology and business model disruptions with the dramatic progress of storage and EVs and the emergence of energy communities;
- Political disruptions as local governments and communities seize the occasion to re-establish power on energy infrastructures and services.
We will try to analyze these disruptions and to map out a systemic vision of a "de-utilized" energy world.
