Two thirds of industrial energy demand is heat, not electricity, and most of it still runs on gas. Thermal storage converts cheap electricity into heat, stores it in concrete, and dispatches it when the factory needs it, undercutting the gas bill even though gas is cheaper per unit on average. Alex Robertson, CEO of ENERGYNEST, joins Ed Porter to explain how a thermal battery works, why it competes with lithium-ion on cost, and why grid connections - not the technology - are the real constraint on industrial decarbonisation.They cover:- Why thermal storage functions like a battery on the energy markets but stores heat one-way in optimised concrete.- The medium-temperature "frying, drying and applying" range (roughly 150 to 300C) that sits above heat pumps and below cement and steel.- How decoupling thermal demand from the electricity price typically can cut the gas bill by around 50%.- Why a 20-foot-container module stores about two megawatt hours, stacks three high, and loses only around 2% of capacity per day.- Why a flexible, interruptible asset is exactly what congested grids need - and why Germany still lacks the flexible connection framework the Netherlands is rolling out.Ask Ko, Modo Energy's AI analyst, any question from this conversation: https://modoenergy.com/sign-up?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast_apps&utm_campaign=Alex Robertson&utm_content=ko_signupRead the companion article: https://modoenergy.com/transmission-podcast/80ce6824-59a1-495b-9e94-0a38bdb9572e?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast_apps&utm_campaign=Alex Robertson&utm_content=article_pageModo Energy's solar and battery forecasts are live at modo.energy.You can watch or listen to new episodes every Tuesday.

Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-111-btb-x-woo-conference-part-2 Recorded live at the WOO Congress 2026 in London just a fortnight ago, this is the second of our special Behind the Billboard episodes - and this time we're on the Global OOH, Innovation & Creativity track. Hugh and Dan….. Well…. Mainly Dan as Hugh had run away to catch a train…. grab short, sharp conversations with a stellar line-up of out-of-home leaders from around the world: Elizabeth McIntyre, CEO of OMA Australia; Ben Milne, CEO APAC at Billups; Nick Bell, UK MD at Billups; Jaime Byrdak, CEO North America at Billups; Jay Young, MD of Grand Visual; Sarah Parkes, Managing Partner, International at Talon; Danielle Austin of Evolve OOH; James Harrison from MPN part of Dubai Holdings; and Simon Wall, CEO of Glynt Group in South Africa. Phew… what a list… what a monster session. Across the episode we explore where OOH is heading now: smarter creative, better data, creative mapping, AI, sustainable infrastructure, mobile media, and the enduring power of a brilliantly simple poster in the right place. There are stories behind work for Google Maps, RNLI's Float To Live, Nike Running and the NYC Marathon, Selleys, Jolt, Out There, Ad Free Zones, IFS.ai and Tractor Media's school-powering billboards. It's a fast-moving global tour of the medium we love: from Australia to Dubai, South Africa to North America, and back to the streets of London. Along the way, our guests pick their favourite billboards, share what excites them about the future, and remind us that when out-of-home is at its best, it's public, useful, unmissable and impossible to ignore. In true Behind the Billboard style, there are a few rabbit holes, plenty of billboard nerdery, and a healthy amount of love for the people pushing the medium forward. Thanks to WOO for having us, to all our brilliant guests for giving up their time in the middle of congress chaos, and to everyone who still believes the humble billboard has plenty of magic left in it. Thanks again to our usual suspects and supporters, and for this one especially the team at WOO.

The pressure on treasury is no longer simply to manage liquidity and risk, but to help the business respond faster and smarter. Olivier Anceau and Baris Kalay (Bank of America) explore how, particularly in APAC, volatility, fragmentation and cross-border complexity are pushing treasury beyond execution, towards providing earlier visibility, more accurate forecasting and clearer, decision-ready options. From local currency settlement that helps manage FX risk to payments decisions that shape working capital and customer experience, treasury's fundamentals are becoming more consequential across the business.

What happens to all those leads marketing works so hard to generate? More often than not, they go cold. According to Nishi Seth, Industry & Solutions Marketing Lead for Google Cloud APAC, this isn't a niche problem. It's one of the most persistent challenges across B2B, regardless of company size or sophistication. In this episode, Shahin sits down with Nishi to unpack the real reasons leads stall between marketing and sales, from qualification gaps to missing context, and what it actually takes to fix them. Nishi shares battle-tested lessons from scaling Google Cloud's marketing-to-sales motion across APAC, including how AI is transforming BDR productivity right now. Guest Introduction Nishi Seth is the Industry & Solutions Marketing Lead for Google Cloud APAC at Google, with over 20 years of experience across cloud technology, financial services, and travel. She has held senior marketing roles at American Express and British Airways, and is a recognised B2B marketing leader across the Asia-Pacific region. Key Topics Why leads go cold: the two root causes (qualification gaps and context gaps) and why even the most sophisticated B2B organisations struggle with themThe three pillars of an optimised marketing-to-sales handover: lead quality, context, and a continuous review and feedback loopWhy BDRs are the critical bridge between marketing and sales, and how to assess whether your BDR function is actually workingHow MQL definitions should evolve over time: Google Cloud's journey from basic demographic scoring to 48+ real-time intent signals, including account-level qualificationWhat providing context to BDRs really means: enablement calls, campaign-specific opening scripts, and cadences tailored to how each lead engagedThe key metrics that reveal handover health: SAL acceptance rates, SAL-to-SQL conversion, number of outreach touches, and lead velocityHow AI is changing BDR productivity: using automation for low-intent lead follow-up, real-time AI assistants during live sales calls, and AI-powered account research at scaleNishi's rapid-fire take: "strong opinions, loosely held," using AI to boost your own marketing productivity, and why simplifying complexity in B2B is what excites her most Resources & Links Google Cloud — Nishi's base for all real-world examples discussed, from MQL definition evolution to AI-powered BDR toolingGoogle Gemini — Nishi's go-to research tool in place of following influencers; she also used it to prepare for this episode Contact & Credits Host: Shahin Hoda Guest: Nishi Seth Produced by: Shahin Hoda and Alexander Hipwell Edited by: Alexander Hipwell Music by: Breakmaster Cylinder APAC's B2B Growth Podcast is Presented by xGrowth

Is Your Portfolio Missing Out? The Green Bond Boom ExplainedQuestion:How have green bonds evolved, what risks and opportunities do they present for investors, and what are the biggest misconceptions about this asset class?Answer:Green bonds have grown into a US $2 trillion global market, with Europe leading but APAC and emerging markets catching up. According to Johann Ple, senior portfolio manager at BNP Paribas Asset Management, green bonds now offer broad sector diversification and transparency, making them a credible alternative to conventional bonds. Risks are similar to traditional bonds (interest rates, credit spreads), but greenwashing and sector concentration require careful due diligence. Misconceptions about lower returns (“greenium”) are fading, and green bonds are increasingly viable for all investors, not just those focused on sustainability. Australian super funds and institutional investors can now build custom strategies, aligning portfolios with net zero ambitions without sacrificing performance.Why it matters:For investors, green bonds represent a way to combine positive environmental impact with competitive returns and transparency. The asset class is mature enough for custom strategies, with over 800 issuers and broad sector representation. Understanding the risks and debunking myths is crucial for informed allocation, especially as demand grows in Australia and globally.Sources:• Johann Ple, senior portfolio manager, BNP Paribas Asset Management• Michelle Baltazar, executive director of media, FS Sustainability• Responsible Investing Association Australia• EU Green Bond Standards, APAC market dataTimestamps:00:00 US as a missed opportunity for green bonds02:07 Market size: $2 trillion, Europe dominates, APAC and emerging markets rising03:50 Sector diversification: utilities, banks, real estate, transport, telecom06:54 Risks: conventional bond risks, greenwashing, sector concentration09:00 Greenwashing: issuer and project due diligence11:25 Australia's role: investor and issuer, custom strategies for super funds13:03 Misconceptions: returns, “greenium”, ESG backlash16:54 Growth drivers: APAC, emerging markets, not just EuropeWe record on Gadigal land and pay our respects to the traditional custodians of country and elders past and present.https://www.fssustainability.com.au/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

ThreatLocker's APAC director of operations, Emile Barakat, joins Cyber Daily's David Hollingworth to discuss what makes the Essential Eight so essential, the federal government's budget spend on cyber security, and the Australian outlook on cyber crime and why it happens here. This week on the Cyber Uncut podcast, Cyber Daily deputy editor David Hollingworth speaks with Emile Barakat, the head of cyber security firm ThreatLocker's operations in the Asia-Pacific region. ThreatLocker – and its boss, Danny Jenkins – is a big fan of Australia's Essential Eight cyber security standard, but what really makes that tick, and why is it so important? The pair discuss just why it's one of the gold standards of cyber protection and why other countries should take note. Then it's time to consider this year's budget and the role of government in securing businesses, economies, and consumers in a world of growing cyber threats. Finally, Hollingworth and Barakat get to grips with the local threat landscape and the human challenges of cyber security. "Typically, an organisation will run security awareness training every quarter. Some will do it less frequently, unfortunately," Barakat says. "Even with that training, you'll see compromises and, at times, the same employees make the same mistakes." Enjoy, The Cyber Uncut team

Something has changed at the board level. Recorded in the media room at Infosecurity Europe 2026 in London, Ian Schenkel, VP Sales, EMEA & APAC of Intel 471, describes directors who no longer take security on faith. After a year of headline breaches from Jaguar Land Rover to Marks and Spencer and the Co-op, leadership wants proof rather than promises. What does the board actually want to know? A straight answer to one question: are we okay? Ian Schenkel starts with geopolitics. Nation-state activity, supply chain exposure, and shifting global markets all shape whether a business can keep running. Threat intelligence becomes the early warning system leaders use to decide where to move and which actors have a history of targeting their industry. The next question gets personal. Does this affect us? Have we already been hit? This is where Intel 471 leans on retroactive threat detection. When new indicators of compromise surface, an analyst can build detection queries in seconds against a SIEM, SOAR tool, SentinelOne, Microsoft, or Palo Alto, then report back to the board with a clear answer. How does intelligence reach the board without getting lost in the weeds? It travels as a story the board can act on. Intel 471 pulls its three core areas, cyber threat intelligence, attack surface management, and threat hunting, into a single report that scales from an executive summary to a detailed account of what was found and neutralized. The stories make it real. During merger rumors, an attacker registered a look-alike domain and emailed employees from it. In another case, Intel 471 warned an organization it did not yet work with about a politically motivated actor that was openly discussing it. The value is the early signal, long before perimeter and endpoint defenses ever engage. Sometimes the right move is not technical at all. It might be briefing executives on targeted ransomware or reminding employees to stay alert against the email that has not arrived yet. The throughline, as Ian Schenkel frames it, is prevention over reaction, and a board finally asking the right questions. This is a Brand Spotlight.

US CENTCOM launched fresh strikes on multiple targets in Iran, which have since been “completed”. In retaliation, Iran struck 18 US military targets in two waves, and multiple explosions were reported at US bases in Kuwait and Bahrain.Speaking on Wednesday (US time), US President Trump stated that Iran must choose between war or a new deal and warned, “we'll bomb them to rubble tomorrow night” if there is no deal.Iran said the Strait of Hormuz was declared closed to the passage of any type of vessel, including all tankers and commercial vessels. However, the US rejected this claim, adding that transit was continuing through the Strait.Crude benchmarks gained on the US strikes, but have since most of the overnight advances given Trump had warned to hit Iran in advance, and after CENTCOM said the latest strikes had been completed. Brent Aug'26 +0.6%.APAC stocks extended lower; European equity futures are indicative of a weak open.DXY is slightly lower heading into US PPI, whilst G10s post mild gains.Looking ahead, highlights include Swedish CPIF Final (May), US PPI (May), Jobless Claims (May/30), ECB Policy Announcement (Jun), CBRT Policy Announcement (Jun), OPEC MOMR (Jun), Comments from ECB President Lagarde, Supply from UK, Italy & US, Earnings from Adobe.Read the full report covering Equities, Forex, Fixed Income, Commodites and more on Newsquawk
At Infosecurity Europe 2026 in London, Matt Ellison, Director of Sales Engineering EMEA & APAC at Corelight, joins Sean Martin to unpack the visibility gap widening across security operations. The SOC is either drowning in data or missing the data that matters most. Corelight, custodian of the open-source Zeek project, builds a platform that turns raw network traffic into evidence teams can actually use. Why do today's most evasive attacks slip past endpoint detection? Because they are designed to. Ellison points to typhoon-style campaigns staged from network and hardware devices specifically to avoid EDR. When a platform sees all of the network traffic moving backwards and forwards, those moves stop being invisible. Seeing more is only half the battle. Ellison describes teams trapped by a fear of missing something, switching on every "just in case" detection until alert volume becomes its own crisis. The real question shifts from "what fired" to "what does this actually mean for my environment." How do you investigate a detection you cannot see inside? A black box hands down a verdict with no evidence behind it. Corelight takes an open approach, exposing the data behind every conclusion so analysts can follow a flow to its root cause and apply the one thing no vendor ships: their own knowledge of the network. The proof tends to show up fast. Ellison recalls a proof of value where, within thirty minutes, the team surfaced sensitive information moving unencrypted across the network. Other finds are smaller but telling, like a finance team's certificate using a weak cipher. Corelight even names its catch-all logs plainly, the "weird" log and the "unknown" log. Visibility feeds compliance too. Frameworks like NIS2, DORA, and GDPR demand evidence, not a tool humming in the corner that no one reviews. Ellison previews a coming release that adds asset classification, identifying every device on the network and explaining the why behind it. This is a Brand Spotlight.

Most battery revenue projections stop at the day-ahead auction. But the optimisers running multi-gigawatt BESS portfolios argue that's where the money is being left on the table - re-trading a battery through intraday, balancing, and ancillary services can add 50% or more to revenue, and battery offtake structures like floors, tolls, and swaps only make sense once you understand how that value actually gets captured.In this episode of Transmission, Ed Porter sits down with Brian Lonn, Head of UK Flexibility at Statkraft, to break down how a multi-gigawatt battery optimisation desk actually trades batteries and the offtake structures it offers on top.They cover:How battery re-trading works in practice.How Statkraft scaled its GB flex portfolio from 22MW of intraday-active battery volume to ~4.5GW under contract and why this scale is the precondition for offering offtake at all.Why the battery optimisation market could consolidate and what that means for smaller optimisers and asset owners.How battery floors, tolls, and day-ahead swaps differ in tenor and purpose, with a working £/MW ballpark for each on a 2-hour battery.Brian's contrarian view on Clean Power 2030: why the real question for the GB power system is megawatt-hours, not megawatts.Want sharper answers on battery storage markets?

Faced with slowing domestic growth and rising geopolitical tensions, China is changing its export strategy and selling different things, to different customers, in different places. Electric vehicles, solar panels and AI-enabled services are replacing low-cost manufactured goods. And the destination? Increasingly, emerging markets in Southeast Asia, Latin America and beyond. China's evolving overseas footprint will have far-reaching credit consequences. From autos in Europe to metals in Latin America and clean energy infrastructure in Asia, this is a global story with local credit impact.

Ramon Perez, Executive Director of the Digital Democracy Project, joins Brian Nichols to reveal how mobile voting software is putting Congress directly into voters' pockets - and why Governor Ron DeSantis line-item vetoed the Florida bill that would have made it official state policy. Inside, Ramon breaks down the verified voter scorecards that have lawmakers running scared, the blockchain technology borrowed from Voatz-style military overseas voting, and the brutal statistic nobody talks about... 94% of Americans live in gerrymandered congressional districts where the general election barely moves the needle. We expose the real reason DeSantis killed an appropriation that had bipartisan support across the entire Florida legislature. Spoiler... it has nothing to do with small government. Inside, you'll hear the uncensored breakdown of how blockchain-verified mobile voting actually works, why APAC handlers and teachers unions own your representatives while parents and small business owners get ignored, and the contrarian frame that proves the MAGA movement is economically left wing and culturally right wing. Most Americans have mentally checked out of politics. And honestly? They're not crazy. If 80% of voters live in a state controlled entirely by one party, what does your vote actually do between elections? Nothing. So what happens when 24,000 verified voters start grading their legislators in real time on 800+ bills... and the politicians realize they can't hide anymore?

Two rewarded UA platforms just became one — and the integration is already live, not "coming in six months." Recorded live at MAU Vegas, this is the inside story of Mistplay's acquisition of MyChips and the launch of the Mistplay Audience Network.Matej Lančarič sits down with Massimo (founder of MAF / MyChips, now scaling the international business at Mistplay) and Mark Bearman (GM, Loyalty Play at Mistplay) for the third Mistplay MAU conversation. They unpack how the deal actually came together (it started with a Slack message asking "who is MAF?"), why MyChips wasn't even looking to sell, how a bootstrapped 70-person company with just 7 engineers moved fast enough to be operational on day one, the near-zero overlap between the two businesses (MyChips strong in APAC/EMEA supply, Mistplay strong in North America demand), and what consolidation in the rewarded space actually looks like now that the first major deal has closed.The North Star, stated plainly: be the undisputed number-one rewarded UA platform by MAU 2027.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 The Mistplay Audience Network — already live01:25 Meet Massimo (MAF) and Mark (Loyalty Play)02:25 "Who is MAF?" — the Slack message that started it03:17 Why Mistplay, why now — the billion-dollar question05:24 The geo fit — APAC supply meets North America demand08:03 How the demand and supply integration actually works11:50 Scaling without losing quality — fraud, engagement, price16:46 The consolidation question — and why only Mistplay has moved19:45 MAU 2027 — the number-one rewarded platform North Star
The scope of the National Energy System Operator - or NESO - has expanded from running the electricity system to planning Britain's whole energy system across electricity, gas and hydrogen, all while delivering connections reform and steering toward Clean Power 2030. That transformation is reshaping everything from how Britain plans its grid 20 years out to how it keeps the lights on tonight. Ed Porter is joined by Kayte O'Neill, Chief Operating Officer at the National Energy System Operator (NESO), for a wide-ranging conversation on the biggest changes in the GB power market: grid connections reform, the battery storage queue, zero-carbon grid operation, and the next wave of electricity market design.They cover:Connections reform and the UK grid queue — how NESO has cut the 800GW queue down to a deliverable pipeline and what Gate 2 means for developers over the next 12 months.The battery storage connections queue and how NESO is thinking about attrition, bay sharing and co-location.Zero-carbon operation of the GB grid and why gas plants still run on windy, sunny days (stability services, inertia, grid-forming inverters)NESO's expanded whole-system role - strategic planning across electricity, gas and hydrogen, and the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan (SSEP)Reformed National Pricing, data centre demand connections, AI in the control room, and the £40bn/year investment unlock at stake.Ask Ko, Modo Energy's AI energy analyst, your questions on UK grid operations and BESS markets: Sign up hereTranscript available hereHosted by Ed Porter, Director EMEA & APAC at Modo Energy.Chapters:00:00 - Intro: what people get wrong about NESO04:15 - NESO's new role in gas security of supply05:49 - The summer outlook and GB's low-demand operability problem07:48 - Why gas still runs on the GB grid on windy, sunny days09:49 - Stability services and the path to zero-carbon grid operation11:03 - The 97.7% zero-carbon record on 1 April 202512:40 - Stability pathfinders, inertia markets and grid-forming inverters17:04 - The winter challenge: gigawatts vs terawatt-hours21:33 - Connections reform: from 800GW to a deliverable grid23:54 - What connections reform means for developers next26:01 - The skilled-labour bottleneck behind grid build-out30:32 - Battery queue attrition and the BESS oversupply problem33:51 - The Strategic Spatial Energy Plan (SSEP)38:59 - Co-location and bay sharing: the unfinished reform44:35 - Reformed National Pricing and GB electricity market reform49:13 - Data, digital and AI in the NESO control room51:44 - The 2026 Operability Strategy Report and Markets Roadmap52:24 - A contrarian case for connections reformMusic licensed via Artlist.

Thanks To Our Sponsor Kalshi: http://kalshi.com/r/IMPACT Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu, coming to you live from London! In this episode, Tom and Drew dive into a whirlwind of urgent headlines and provocative issues facing the world today. From explosive allegations of insider trading against President Trump—with a staggering 3,700 stock trades in the first quarter of 2026 alone—to the ongoing controversy around politicians trading stocks, Tom does not hold back on why this is a dangerous conflict of interest threatening democracy. The episode also explores the escalating political battle in Kentucky, where APAC-backed super PACs are pouring unprecedented levels of funding to unseat Congressman Massie, igniting fresh debates about the corrosive role of money in politics. Tom and Drew break down the surge of government fraud investigations, the challenging realities of fraud in both red and blue states, and dissect the latest tech stories—including the wild results of AI agents left unsupervised in virtual simulations. Across the pond, the duo reflects on attending a massive—and contentious—Tommy Robinson rally in London, offering on-the-ground insights into the simmering immigration debate and cultural clashes reshaping the UK and the West. Plus: tinfoil-hat-worthy discussion on the rise of tick-borne meat allergies and whether elite meddling is behind it all. With robust debates, sharp analysis, and live audience questions, this episode promises to challenge assumptions and pull back the curtain on the powerful interests shaping our world right now.
