In this episode, we speak to Chris Doherty, CEO of Joulen, about scaling a flexibility platform in a fast-moving energy market. Chris shares how Joulen is helping businesses and households maximise the value of renewable assets (from batteries and EVs to grid-scale storage) while navigating the practical challenges of asset integration, customer adoption and expansion into new markets.

We discuss:

• The evolution of flexibility markets, and the commercial opportunity in orchestrating distributed energy assets.
• The technology, data and interoperability challenges involved in multi-asset optimisation.
• What it takes to build a high-performing, ambitious business in the energy transition.

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

• Flexibility will be central to a clean, resilient energy system, but turning its potential into mass-market adoption relies on making renewable energy assets a compelling financial choice for customers, supported by the right technology and partnerships.
