The transformation of the energy system into a smart grid requires quick and creative solutions. It's no small wonder, therefore, that the number of start-up companies driving digitalization even across sector limits is immense. Meet some of those start-ups and learn about their innovative ideas in this session; be inspired by these young founders' pioneering spirit.

Panel Discussion of the Session: Turning Industrial and Commercial Demand Side Flexibility into Value

Tuesday, June 23, 2026, 02:30 pm

Industrial and commercial flexibility is no longer experimental - it is becoming a core part of network operation and market participation. Across Europe, DSOs, transmission system operators (TSOs), aggregators and retailers are moving from isolated pilots to coordinated programs that avoid grid upgrades and deliver real capacity and financial value for all participants.This session focuses on the operational integration of C&I flexibility into routine grid workflows through dispatch, settlement, verification and commercial models. It highlights how flexibility is embedded in daily operations: from automated dispatch and verification tools to new contractual models that reward large energy users for adapting consumption. You will gain insight into replicable approaches for scaling flex portfolios, integrating them into control-room workflows and ensuring fair value-sharing across utilities, service providers and industrial consumers.

Across Europe, there are ports, logistics hubs, industrial parks and campuses electrifying faster than grid capacity can be expanded. Shared connections, hybrid assets and active energy management are no longer optional -they are essential tools needed to stay connected, compliant and competitive. Well-designed industrial hubs and clusters can also strengthen Europe's resilience and competitiveness, but only if they are organized in a way that preserves a company's operational autonomy and avoids new system vulnerabilities or unnecessary complexity. This session explores how grid-constrained multi-asset sites are designed and operated in practice. Speakers will show how solar systems, battery storage systems, EV charging and flexible loads can be coordinated despite limited connections. They will also explain how DSOs interact with these sites and how energy hubs can deliver measurable grid relief while maintaining smooth operation.
