🚀 In this Solarplaza Webinar, we explored the shifting landscape of energy security — moving from a technical "checkbox" to a critical pillar of bankability and national sovereignty. As Europe’s infrastructure becomes increasingly digitalized, the industry must transition from abstract risk management to a commercial reality where resilience defines the market winners.

📌 What we learned:
• Why solar is transitioning from a green energy goal to a fuel-independent asset critical for national sovereignty.
• How the centralized nature of cloud platforms creates systemic vulnerabilities for gigawatts of generation capacity.
• Why the exponential growth of AI and battery storage is outstripping traditional linear grid security models.
• The increasing geopolitical threats facing subsea data cables and the digital backbone of the energy system.
• How the industry is shifting toward a model where operational resilience directly defines the "winners" of the energy market.

🎙️ Featuring:
Gerard Reid, Co-Founder & Partner, Alexa Capital
Andreas Ditlev Duckert, Solar Investor
Peter Baard, Strategic Advisor Critical Infra Resilience, Liander
