In this episode of the Soliverse Podcast, Peter sits down with Genna Boyle, CCO at Gridcog, to unpack one of the most important—and misunderstood—forces shaping energy today: flexibility.
As the grid gets more complex and congested, batteries, flexible loads, and smarter software are becoming essential to how we plan, build, and operate energy systems. Genna explains why traditional “solar vs storage” thinking is outdated, and how modeling entire energy ecosystems—across markets, technologies, and commercial models—is the new gold standard.
They discuss:
⚡ Why co-location and right-sizing are now non-negotiable
🔋 The role of batteries, EVs, and hybrid assets in flex
📉 Negative prices and what they really signal
📈 Why each site needs custom modeling (no more rule-of-thumb!)
🌍 Lessons from Australia, Germany, and the UK
📊 The future of energy software: deterministic, not guesswork
🧠 How Gridcog helps developers simulate 1,000+ site scenarios at once
📡 Why data visibility, not just data itself, is the next challenge
