How municipal utilities are shaping the energy world of the future
In the highly regulated German energy market, Thomas Mösl, Chief Technology Officer at TWL AG, shows how transformation can be successful. Through smart partnerships, open ecosystems, and the use of modern platforms, he drives innovation and creates real added value for customers.
Standardized processes and digital platforms enable efficient operations, fast decision-making, and tailored services. This way, regulatory requirements become not a barrier, but a competitive advantage.
Why public utilities need to deliver more than just electricity
Public utilities are undergoing a profound change. Between regulation, rising customer expectations, complex collaborations, and internal cultural change, they must actively shape the energy transition at the local level. In an expert discussion with Steffen Püschel and Dennis Schiedat, we examine how this transformation process can succeed at the local level.
Whether it’s investments in networks, new services for prosumers, or cooperation with tradespeople and politicians, the talk shows how municipal utilities can strengthen their role as shapers of a sustainable future.
How does a traditional energy supplier become a true “super utility company”?
How does a traditional energy supplier become a true “super utility company”? Michel Nicolai talks to Dr. Volker Rieger about the industry’s shift away from isolated solutions toward networked structures and holistic thinking.
Digital platforms and ecosystems enable scalable offerings, reduce complexity, and create inspiring customer experiences. Here, perspectives are presented on how networking, cooperation, and community building are becoming the key to a successful energy transition.
How consumers are shaping the energy transition
The energy transition begins at home—including in the shower. Marcus Becker talks to Dr. Volker Rieger about how consumers are shifting from passive energy users to active participants.
Digital services and data-based solutions make energy transparent and tangible, create new offerings through demand, and promote open ecosystems. The conversation offers insights into how participation and networking are driving change—in a very practical way, in everyday life.
Opportunities in the digitalization of the energy sector
The energy transition is technically feasible – now it’s all about data, cooperation, and social change. Stephan Segbers and Dr. Volker Rieger discuss new business models, partner networks, and the role of digitalization in the energy sector.
Data and networking are the key to balancing sustainability, affordability, and security of supply. Here, it becomes clear how energy suppliers, together with politicians, partners, and society, can make the transformation successful and socially acceptable.
Drivers for the energy transition
The energy industry is undergoing change, as digitalization and the energy transition are fundamentally transforming the sector. Matthias Hartmann and Dr. Volker Rieger discuss how energy companies can strategically leverage modern technologies such as AI, automation, and data-driven processes to actively shape change.
The discussion focuses on the key drivers of the energy industry and ideas on how the sector can unlock its full potential – efficiently, sustainably, and with an eye to the future.
