🔋 The energy landscape is changing fast, and a decentralized grid is reshaping how we think about power. Here are three key takeaways from Joël Jaton's article in Utility Dive: ⚡ Enhanced Resilience: A decentralized grid can bounce back faster from disruptions, making energy more reliable for everyone. 🌞 Empowered Consumers: With decentralized energy, customers are more than consumers—they’re participants, with the power to generate, store, and share energy. 🌍 Sustainability Boost: Localized grids cut down on transmission losses, paving the way for a cleaner, more sustainable future. Decentralization isn’t just a shift; it’s a revolution in how we manage and sustain our energy needs. #EnergyTransition #DecentralizedGrid #Sustainability #GridInnovation

📲 "With those transformational changes that are happening right now, the technology infrastructure that utilities use become critical to their existence. It moves from systems that just help them engage with the consumers once a month to send them a bill, to systems that need to monitor every single device on the networks.” Devrim Celal, Chief Marketing & Flexibility Officer at Kraken, sits down with Anne Delaney for an episode of the Switched On Australia podcasts to discuss how utilities can significantly increase customer engagement and utilize it to accelerate the energy transition.

Thank you so much for coming to our offices and hosting this incredible event!
2 weeks ago, we had the pleasure of hosting a Career Insight Day with Kraken at their offices in Manchester, where 19 curious girls explored the exciting world of careers in technology. Our mission was to inspire and educate them about the vast possibilities a career in tech can offer, raise their aspirations, and help them envision a future where they can thrive equally in tech roles. The girls engaged in a variety of activities: Low-carbon tech workshop: Practising their coding skills while discovering how Kraken is focused on creating a smart, sustainable energy system. Energy tariff awareness session: Stepping into the shoes of developers and project managers to design a new energy tariff to meet client needs. Marketing campaign design: Creating and pitching their ideas to Kraken colleagues. They also had the invaluable opportunity to network with inspiring Kraken role models, learning about their diverse career paths and roles. The impact: 🟠 100% of the girls now understand that there are different routes and pathways into careers in tech. 🟠95% of the girls shared that the day had changed their thoughts about what a person who works in technology is actually like in a positive way. 🟠Just under 70% of the students shared that the colleagues they met on the day had inspired them to think differently about their future job and would like to find out more about tech careers. 🟠Just under 60% of the girls would now like a career in tech. We love hearing quotes from the girls and teachers who attended the day. - “I really loved it and want to work here. Everyone is so funny and friendly.” - Student - “It was very fun and definitely changed my mind about tech.” - Student - “I loved it and I got to find out so many new things.” - Student - “I thought people in technology would just have to be smart but I can see they can be smart and funny as well…like normal people.” - Student - “This has been so inspirational!” - Teacher - “Students were so inspired by the work space and women they spoke to.” - Teacher A huge thank you to everyone who made this day possible and to the girls for their enthusiasm and creativity. Together, we are shaping the future of tech!

With reports earlier this year of France’s ambition offshore wind targets; 45 GW by 2050, and an intermediate target of 18 GW by 2035, it is great to see EDF Renouvelables’ Fécamp offshore wind farm is now fully operational, generating 497 MW of clean energy from 71 turbines, enough to power 770,000 homes! Not only that, but there’s more great news for EDF as the Neart na Gaoithe (NnG) Offshore Wind Farm has just generated its first power! ⚡ Located 15.5 km off the coast of Fife, NnG Offshore Wind will deliver up to 450 MW of clean energy when fully commissioned next year, helping Scotland and the UK reach their net zero goals. 🌎 At Kraken, we’re proud to be supporting EDF Renewables in managing their Marine Coordination through the Kraken system, to help make these projects a success and powering a greener future! 💪 Kraken enabled a smooth handover from construction to operations with our incredible technology for offshore wind. 🥳 EDF Renouvelables now have 7 offshore wind farms live and managed using a single unified system (...yes, Kraken!). 🇫🇷 In total Kraken manages 5000MW of renewable energy in France alone (15% of renewable capacity). Vive la France! #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #WindPower #EnergyTransition #NetZero

💡 The future of energy is here, and consumers are leading the way! 🟢 No longer just passive users, people are actively participating in the energy system by generating, storing, and even selling electricity back to the grid. From smart home batteries to EVs, this transformation opens up huge opportunities for both consumers and utilities. 🔋 Smart tech is crucial for balancing the decentralized grid, and utilities have a prime opportunity to engage and educate customers, unlocking a greener and more resilient future for everyone.
