A flexible grid underpins Europe’s energy transition and helps bring more renewables online. According to statistics from SolarPower Europe, it could also bring big benefits, including saving the European Union €30 billion and avoiding 151 million tonnes of CO2 emissions every year by 2030.

However, to make all of this a reality, Europe’s energy system infrastructure and energy market need to support flexibility.

On this special, live episode of Watt Matters, recorded at the Solar Power Summit in Brussels, a panel of experts joins Kira to discuss flexibility's role in the energy transition and how Europe can improve it.

The panel comprises:

• Joachim Balke, head of unit for infrastructure and regional cooperation at the European Commission’s energy department, DG ENER
• Juan Fernandez, chief operating officer at international renewable energy producer, Sonnedix
• Catarina Augusto, senior grids and flexibility advisor at SolarPower Europe
• Sarah Van Cleve, vice president of sales and commercial excellence for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa at energy storage company Fluence
