New Energy Landscape – Why Collaboration is No Longer Optional

With Juhász I. Marton, Schneider Electric & Kornél Tóth, MOL Group
From the Go Net Zero Energy CEE Summit, Budapest

As AI, urbanisation, and the global energy transition collide, the energy landscape is shifting faster than ever. In this dynamic presentation, Schneider Electric and MOL Group deliver a clear message: collaboration and efficiency are now mission-critical.

What’s driving change?

• AI’s booming energy demand (yes, even your ChatGPT questions!)
• 3 billion more people needing power by 2050
• The rise of “prosumers” and decentralised energy systems
• Urgent need for regional energy independence in Europe

What’s needed?

• Radical collaboration across the tech and energy value chain
• Interoperability and standards (think: the USB-C of clean energy)
• Smarter grids, clearer investment returns, and localised solutions

“You can only be sustainable in a sustainable way.”
