884: Clean Energy's Next Chapter: Automation, Grid Innovation, and Resilient Design
Manage episode 525287026 series 2804790
Solar is finally getting smarter. And faster - thanks to…robots?
Recorded live at RE+ 2025, this episode takes you behind the scenes of solar’s most advanced innovations — from automation in engineering to AI-driven O&M and digital twins. Hosts Amy Norstedt and Josh Beck sit down with some of the Industry’s most forward-thinking executives to talk real-time transformation across the project lifecycle.
Featured in this episode:
Tyler Nelson, CEO at Revamp’s outlines how their new software suite (proven on >15% of all new solar built in the US last year!) is facilitating faster project execution
Matt Campbell, CEO of Terabase, shares that on-site solar robotics is real, and finally, it’s here,
Derek Chase, CEO of OnSight Technologies (Now part of Nextpower) revelas how robotic/ai site inspection is a gamechanger for asset management, and finally
Hugh Scott, CTO at Flexgen covers how battery dispatch control is smoothing the grid and making assets more reliable
Expect to learn:
🔹 How AI is making engineers and robots more effective, not replacing them
🔹 Why automation is reducing cost, risk, and delay in construction
🔹 The role of predictive inspections in preventing asset failures
🔹 How digital twins are reshaping site visibility and performance
Is the energy transition finally getting a digital upgrade?
