The Curious Learners
I feel privileged to speak to so many great minds as part of my job. They are passionate builders, insightful investors, laser-focused leaders. They are all curious learners in their own way. It is their urge to learn more. That urge is curiosity. When I speak to these people, I hear fascinating ideas, solid business plans, genius growth hacking practices, relentless team building focus, unique investing strategies and many others. However, most of the time, key insights, business intelligence and inspiring stories shared in these conversations do not make their way to the outside world. The Curious Learners is an attempt to share the stories of those curious learners with those, who might find the inspiration that they were looking for or those who might get the encouragement for their own journey that they already started. Looking forward to a long journey together.

Today, my AI co-hosts are exploring the major shifts reshaping the energy landscape: digitalisation, decentralisation, and decarbonisation. Here is the blog post that I published on The Curious Learners.
As demand grows and renewables like solar and wind rise, the aging grid faces immense pressure. The solution? A decentralised grid with local energy generation, storage, and demand management, all driven by flexibility.
We'll dive into Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), the building blocks of this new system, and how their adoption varies across developed and developing markets. Plus, we'll tackle the challenges to widespread DER adoption, from regulatory hurdles to market design flaws.
