Event Horizon 2019 has just taken place.
The theme of this year’s conference was #MakeYourMove. If we’re going to have a hope of dealing with issues like #ClimateChange, then we have to accelerate the pace of the Energy Transition. One key takeaway from this year’s event is that blockchain enabled solutions that help accelerate the Energy Transition are viable today and are being commercially deployed.
So for the final few episodes in this series, we’re going to hear from a number of Energy Companies who have already Made a Move.

In the warm up for this year’s EventHorizon, in order to keep we wanted to continue
In order to continue making progress and change, we need to identify and tackle the current problems in our community. We wanted to initiate the conversation about so called elephants in the (energy blockchain) room.
As we are warming up for this year’s EventHorizon, we wanted to start preparing and talk about the state of the global energy blockchain sector. In order to continue making progress and change, we need to identify and tackle the current problems in our community. We wanted to initiate the conversation about so called elephants in the (energy blockchain) room.
What is happening and we are not talking about it? And why? Here are just some of the topics we are planning to cover:
Regulation – everyone is complaining about impediments in the regulation, but what is the real problem here?
Peer to peer? What do companies mean when they say they are doing peer to peer?
Disruptors? Really? So many are here to “disrupt” the energy sector? Not going anywhere anytime soon.
Business models? Commercialization strategy?
Why are utilities moving so slowly?
Sometimes it just feels good to rant about the problems and it brings us closer to the solution.
