The power grid isn’t just growing (at unprecedented rates!)
It’s becoming more complex, more distributed, and harder to manage.
In this episode, Marc Spieler, who leads NVIDIA’s global Energy business, explains how AI and accelerated computing already support grid operations, solar and storage forecasting, and infrastructure planning across the energy sector.
Nico and Marc explore why electrification and data center growth are reshaping demand patterns, how software-defined infrastructure helps utilities avoid costly missteps, and where AI delivers practical value today. This conversation focuses on real workflows, real constraints, and what energy leaders need to understand as the grid evolves.
If you work in solar, storage, utilities, or grid infrastructure, this episode will sharpen how you think about the role of software in clean energy. And regardless what sector, you’ll certainly learn more about how one of the most exciting companies on the planet is enabling a cleaner and more efficient energy future! (P.S. we discuss some FREE tools you probably didn’t know exist…)
🎧 Listen now and rethink how we can us ai to shape up our aging infrastructure.
Expect to Learn- How NVIDIA supports grid operations beyond hardware
- Where AI already improves solar, storage, and forecasting
- Why grid challenges increasingly involve coordination, not capacity
- What software-defined infrastructure means for utilities
- How energy companies work with NVIDIA today
You don’t have to be a technologist to benefit from this conversation. Marc makes it clear that AI is not replacing humans in energy, it’s supercharging what’s possible. This one is for the builders who want to stay ahead of the curve.
Happy Building, #solarwarriors!
