The direction of travel for the global energy sector is clear, delivering affordable, secure, sustainable energy supply which in turn will require the energy ecosystem to evolve and incorporate new energy sources and new business models. Existing technologies, skills and operating processes will need to be transformed to ensure the market position of energy companies in a transformed energy system. Energy businesses are uniquely tasked with both implementing their own AI agendas and responding to the sharp increase in power demand created by AI and data centre development. A focus on investment in R&D, project development, scalability, and infrastructure build-out will be needed to keep pace. What strategies should energy producers and suppliers adopt to build bespoke energy mixes creating flexibility for nations and regions aligned with the priorities and pathways to net-zero?
