Executive Talk: From Vision to Voltage - Making 'One Grid, One Price' Work

This pragmatic CEO Talk aims to unpack what it really takes to implement a single, integrated power market by 2030. The conversation will spotlight on-the-ground realities: how grid bottlenecks, permitting delays, investor risk models, and regulatory fragmentation are slowing progress – and which concrete steps can change that. Expect insights on aligning physical infrastructure with market signals, what capital needs to stay confident in Europe’s energy transition, and where public and private players must urgently act. A live audience poll will put one key reform to the test – helping pick the most impactful fix to deliver cheaper, cleaner power across borders. Enjoy inspiring ideas, meaningful conversations, and drinks in a relaxed atmosphere.
