Rethin­king the role of muni­ci­pal uti­li­ties: The path to beco­ming a future-rea­dy ener­gy ser­vice provider

Laun­ched in Decem­ber, our new web­i­nar series Grid­Talks is now ente­ring its second round. The series fea­tures expert dis­cus­sions on the most pres­sing chal­lenges and deve­lo­p­ments sha­ping the ener­gy and mobi­li­ty tran­si­ti­on, from smart ener­gy manage­ment and emer­ging sto­rage tech­no­lo­gies to con­cepts for actively invol­ving citi­zens in the mobi­li­ty transition.

On Febru­ary 20, we will host the next web­i­nar in the series, fea­turing Char­lot­te Rit­ter, Inno­va­ti­on & Ven­ture Hub Lead at inno2grid. She will share insights into new business models for muni­ci­pal uti­li­ties and ener­gy sup­p­ly com­pa­nies (EVUs) in today’s rapidly evol­ving ener­gy land­scape. The ses­si­on will explo­re why tra­di­tio­nal com­mo­di­ty-based business models are incre­asing­ly rea­ching their limits and how the gro­wing demand for ener­gy ser­vices is crea­ting new eco­no­mic oppor­tu­ni­ties. Char­lot­te Rit­ter will also high­light suc­cessful decen­tra­li­zed and digi­tal business models, the role of ener­gy manage­ment sys­tems, and the key suc­cess fac­tors for deve­lo­p­ment, mar­ket ent­ry, and scaling.

Dra­wing on real-world examp­les, the web­i­nar will explo­re how inno­va­ti­ve business models can be sys­te­ma­ti­cal­ly deve­lo­ped, tes­ted, and trans­la­ted into ope­ra­tio­nal prac­ti­ce, hel­ping muni­ci­pal uti­li­ties remain com­pe­ti­ti­ve and future-rea­dy in the long term.

The web­i­nar will take place online via Zoom from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm.
