In the past 5 years, we have seen an incredible rise of Energy Storage (ESS) on numerous Grids. Those markets, whether in Europe (10GW) or in the USA (16GW), have been created by the magic formula where entrepreneurship blended with new technology. For Laurent and Gerard, there is not better guest to discuss the phenomenal growth of the ESS than Dr Alex O'Cinneide. Alex is the Founder and CEO of Gore Street Capital, a London based fund which now manages a portfolio of 1.2GW of batteries in GB, Ireland, Germany, Texas and California. Seven years ago, he was working out of a telephone booth with his laptop on his knees. Alex explains the value of a geographical portfolio approach, how tech is evolving, how supply chains are reacting, what is similar and what is different in all those markets. An energy transition story which is also a personal journey of a very talented entrepreneur whose success has been recognised by the Industry as Alex has been recently received the prestigious “Man of the Year” award by Solar Media. Alex describes the investment in batteries (compared to wind or solar) as the most challenging, but also the most important and rewarding. And as we say on the show, it is all about harnessing “space and time” or in a more market angle “Long Flex – Short Vol”-----This podcast is powered by Axpo an international leader in providing sustainable energy solutions for the future.------This podcast is done in partnership with the Energy Storage Summit 2024The Energy Storage Summit (21-22 February, London) is the biggest, busiest, and most innovative networking event for energy storage, uniting stakeholders to exchange knowledge, learn and establish crucial industry connections.

3 Takeaways:AI is not new, but Cloud based Machine Learning has been the game changer through providing seemingly unlimited capacity to do different kinds of projects, stand up more analytical environments, and to do trials and explore innovation, all in a way we couldn't afford historically. Learn both technology and the business sides. If you have both of those, you are the junction point. You are the person, enabler, and the go to between business and technology that can be an asset for financial services.  Cloud providers are going to get regulated, similar to how utilities such as electricity and water are treated. As the cloud, AI, and ML become much more integrated and migrated into the cloud, oversight will be required to regulate what happens and how systems are operated.--Key Quotes: I really can't state [enough] how important it is to try and get a global view, to get out of your home country, and to work in different countries around the world to experience cultures and experience different peoples of different backgrounds, because it's so much value to you in your career to understand different viewpoints and not just be monoculture.Some of my proudest moments [have been] watching people who I've managed, grow and become self-sufficient and basically overtake me, and become incredible valuable assets to whatever organization they're working for. I really do love watching people grow and become their best. In very simple terms, if you imagine you're a water company in the UK. If you go bankrupt on a Friday, the water still flows on a Monday, because you're regulated to make sure that there is a company with enough capital in it to keep the water flowing and to make sure that that water has an operational process, no matter what happens to that company.  The same will happen to cloud providers. They're becoming too critically important for national and countries. They will become utilitized and they will have to be regulated like a utility. --Best Career Advice:Get a global view outside of where you live. Gaining experiences from different people, cultures, and backgrounds can provide you a lot of value in your career. This will allow you to have a lot of different perspectives that can help you throughout business interactions.--Bio:Ray O'BrienChief Operation Officer at QuantexaRay is Chief Operation Officer at Quantexa.
