Paving the Way

Global Showcase

Times have changed and the way we deliver energy has too. New technologies, climate change policies, and market drivers are all triggering the industry's largest shakeup in over a century. Disruption is forcefully reshaping power systems around the world, and EVs are threatening oil's dominance as a transport fuel. Join these experts at #DEF2018 as they showcase their respective global projects on how they were designed, operated, and managed to achieve economic, reliability, and environmental benefits within our modern energy economy.

From Linear to Circular

Closing the Loop on Waste Streams

The linear 'take-make-dispose' economy is no longer sustainable and businesses can't ignore the toll this system is taking on both the environment and their bottom line. As we begin to re-think and re-design products that are 'made to be made again', it's clear the energy industry requires a systemic shift to achieve long-term sustainability. This segment dives into how the energy system is maximizing the circular economy to cycle back materials through the value chain for re-use, resulting in less energy and resource consumption.

The Digital Revolution in an Electrified Future

Big data, automation, AI and the Blockchain are opening up a new realm of possibilities for the energy industry. In today's digital world, more and more devices are becoming interconnected, delivering transparency and trust to the marketplace. The adoption of these technologies is vital to the survival of companies. Listen in to these experts as they outline how these tech advancements will impact the future of energy.
