Innovating Technology on The Grid
Information
Three continents, one grid problem. Eljar from E.ON (headquartered in Germany, based in Silicon Valley) moderates a cross-border panel on what hypergrowth, AI loads, and decentralization are doing to grid stability and what it would actually take to keep up.
John Cheney of Enera Power Group brings the US developer's lens (solar + storage in California, Texas, and beyond, including a 1.5 GW US-content solar manufacturing plant). Dinesh from Enel Group runs the Silicon Valley innovation hub for a utility operating across 29 countries. Robert from Mittnetz Strom (E.ON's German distribution subsidiary) brings two decades of grid planning under some of the most stringent reliability rules in the world.
The conversation cuts through to the structural issues: why CIM data is walled off in the US but not in Mexico, why California's pilot programs rarely make it to implementation, why the CapEx-reward model breaks innovation incentives, and why "connect first, reinforce later" no longer works.
Panelists:
John Cheney, CEO & Co-founder, Enera Power Group
Dinesh Soundararajan, Innovation Manager, Enel Group
Robert Schlegel, Mittnetz Strom (E.ON subsidiary)
Eljar Akhgarnusch, E.ON (moderator)
