Why the energy digital transition won’t mirror telecom 1:1
Europe’s unbundled power markets and explicit reliability payments mean utilities won’t become “dumb pipes.” Value is shifting to platforms like Kraken, DERMS such as EnergyHub, and HEMS leaders (ecobee, Vivint, Tibo) that orchestrate DERs at scale.
