The adoption of smart, clean energy is too slow. In this session, leading energy companies discuss how we can foster more user interest in smart energy solutions and a better understanding of their benefits. From warehouses to homes, who is responsible for which step and how can we accelerate the energy transition to guarantee a clean, stable energy system?

As smart meters and digital infrastructure become the backbone of modern energy systems, the attack surface for cyber threats grows exponentially and the responsibility of different players blurs. In this session, leading experts explore how to secure the connected grid, balance privacy concerns with data-driven innovation and strengthen resilience against cyberattacks.

We are reaching a tipping point in the adoption of electric vehicles. This requires a complete shift in our energy and e-mobility systems, as well as charging and driving behavior, infrastructure design, and our use of technology. Join experts as they discuss where we are doing well, and what is still lagging behind.

As renewable energy penetration grows, our grid faces new challenges—from blackout risks to windless, sunless “Dunkelflaute” periods. Join top energy experts as they explore how flexibility – demand-side response, aggregation of small-scale flexibility and grid-compliant control — can turn a potential outage into energy security. This live in-person session dives into real-world strategies that keep the lights on in a dynamic, renewables-powered grid.
