Turning grid digitisation from pilot projects into real, system-wide impact requires more than technology — it takes leadership, alignment, and clear KPIs.

On Powering the Future, Mandana White is joined by Michael De Vivo, Head of Europe at EA Technology, to share lessons from the UK and what European utilities can apply next.

Mandana White speaks with Bas Mulder, Consultant – Digital Substations at DNV, on how digital substations are reshaping grid reliability and resilience.

Mandana White speaks with Stefan Hufnagl, Industry Specialist Energy at COPA-DATA, on virtual substations, grid expansion, and easing complexity for utilities.

Mandana catches up with Kristofer Fröjd of Ellevio AB to explore why battery storage is rapidly becoming a critical element of modern grid strategy.

Catch Kristofer again at SGT-26 in Paris this March, where we continue the conversation live on stage.

Kristofer Fröjd, Senior VP of Strategy & Business Development at Ellevio AB, joins Mandana White to unpack how AI, regulation, and new tech are driving the energy transition.

Mandana White talks to Peter Hemmer of Grid to Great about how “digitise–centralise–virtualise” is transforming substation protection and control, and what it unlocks for future-ready grids.

Mandana White sits down with Ali Karademir, Co-Founder and CEO of Eutoenergy, to explore how virtualised protection and automation are reshaping the power grid. From interoperability to modernisation, discover how vPAC is redefining the future of digital substations.

Can AI make the power grid truly explainable? Svein Harald Olsen of Statnett tells Mandana White how Talk2PowerSystem uses CIM, Knowledge Graphs, and AI to turn data complexity into clarity.
