AI and technology: How digital transformation is driving the energy transition

Digitalisation is no longer a side enabler — it’s becoming central to system-wide acceleration, efficiency and optimisation. At the same time, questions remain around scalability, cost, and how quickly the sector can realistically move.

We’ll be asking the panel to explore:

• Where digital tools and AI are already delivering tangible value in the energy transition
• How digitalisation can help address system bottlenecks such as grid integration, storage optimisation and demand flexibility
• The key barriers to adoption, including upfront costs and organisational or cultural challenges
• How partnerships between energy companies and technology providers can accelerate scale while sharing risk
• Which digital breakthroughs could have the biggest impact over the next decade
