About this episode
Peggy zooms in on one of the seven critical infrastructure verticals: energy and power, which is projected to require a staggering $23 trillion in investment through 2040. She unpacks the global trends shaping the sector—from the rise of renewables to digital transformation—and explores how we must rethink infrastructure to meet rising expectations.
She also discusses:
· Why energy demand is rising and how renewable energy and low-carbon sources will come into play.
· The emerging role of small modular reactors and what countries are already taking action.
· The need for grid resilience—and how digital twins, edge, and AI (artificial intelligence) can help.
