The energy transition is entering its next phase and it’s not just about generation. It’s about intelligence.
This Observer piece highlights a critical shift: as demand surges (driven by AI, electrification, and more), the grid must become smarter, more adaptive, and far more efficient.
That’s exactly why we backed Powerline.
Powerline is building the intelligence layer for the grid helping energy providers better understand, manage, and optimize power in real time.
Battery storage is scaling. Infrastructure is expanding. But without intelligence, we’re leaving massive value and reliability on the table.
The future of energy will be defined at the intersection of infrastructure + software.
