Energy hour: Preventing the blackout

Energy hour: Preventing the blackout

Why integration is critical infrastructure
for the energy sector

Wednesday, February 25, 2026, 11:00 CET

Energy market regulation is evolving faster than legacy IT and integration models can safely support.

Across Europe, the shift to 15-minute market processes is multiplying data volumes while compressing operational timelines. In parallel, regulators in the UK, the Middle East, and other regions are introducing stricter requirements around grid stability, data transparency, market reporting and decarbonization.

In this complex environment, fragmented systems and batch-based processes increase operational risk. To prevent disruptions, ensure business continuity and maintain grid reliability, energy organizations must treat integration as critical infrastructure.

Real-time automation, governed data flows and hybrid integration architectures are becoming essential capabilities and the foundation for emerging technologies such as agentic AI. 

Tune in to this webinar to learn from industry experts about how automation and integration are increasingly critical for energy and utilities companies.

What we will cover

In this webinar, we explore how modern integration and automation help energy companies:

  • Operate reliably in real time despite growing data complexity

  • Stay compliant across evolving regional regulations

  • Prepare their digital foundations for the future of energy operations

  • Open Q&A: Get your most pressing questions answered by our panel
