In this episode, Sam Hollister speakers Stephan Marty, CEO of Wattstor, about how commercial and industrial (C&I) businesses can reduce energy costs, improve resilience and accelerate decarbonisation through integrated on-site renewable generation, battery storage and smart energy management. We explore Wattstor's innovative "Price Protect" model, which combines long-term price certainty with lower energy costs, and discuss why distributed energy will play a critical role in Europe's energy transition. 

We discuss:

  • How businesses can reduce energy costs and volatility with long-term, integrated renewable energy solutions.
  • Why simplicity, rather than technology, is the key to helping organisations adopt on-site generation, battery storage and flexibility.
  • The role distributed energy will play in creating a more resilient, affordable and decarbonised European energy system, and the policy changes needed to accelerate progress.

What’s one thing you would like listeners to take away from this?

  • Distributed energy isn't just about sustainability. By combining on-site renewables, storage and intelligent energy management, businesses can gain greater cost certainty, improve resilience and take greater control of their energy future.
