In this episode of InnoStation, we sit down with Alberto Mendes Rebollo, CEO and co-founder of Plexigrid, a trailblazing company redefining electricity distribution for the energy transition. Alberto enlightens us on the current challenges of electrical grids, particularly with the shift towards decentralized and variable renewable energy sources.
The distribution networks, which transport power from the outskirts of a city to households, are immensely more complex than the transmission network, with tens or even hundreds of millions of nodes. And below 20,000 volts, the system operators are essentially blind, without real-time network data or power flow computations.
Join us as we discuss Plexigrid's innovative approach for managing the complex dynamics of modern power systems, focusing on the three core 'superpowers' any distrubution grid should have: real-time visibility across the grid, advanced real-time analytics, and the ability to dynamically manage energy flexibility.
This episode is a deep dive into the future of energy distribution, guided by one of the leading minds in the field!
