The future of energy was on display in Munich last week — and
this isn’t hyperbole! While some still question how an
industrialised nation like Germany can be powered by renewable
energy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, The
smarter E Europe 2026 offered some compelling insights. Through a
major new study, an interactive exhibition, and the countless
innovations showcased across the event, a pathway to a fully
renewable energy system was laid out in remarkable detail.

In this special on-site edition of the podcast, we capture the
energy of the event itself, explore the technologies on display,
and discuss some of the industry's most important developments.
One theme stood out was the emergence of truly 24/7 renewable
energy systems.

Author, engineer, and consultant Tim Meyer joins
the podcast to guide us through the special 24/7 Renewables
exhibition at this year's event. He explains why electric
mobility and vehicle-to-grid technology is a game changer for a
solar-and-wind lead energy system. Meyer also argues that the
transition to clean energy presents major opportunities for
industry, particularly through access to low-cost electricity
during periods of abundant wind and solar generation.

The smarter E founder and CEO Markus Elsässer
also joins the podcast at both the opening and closing of this
year's event. He reflects on the number of visitors this year,
the key conversations taking place across the show floor, and the
challenges currently facing the renewable energy sector.

Other guests in this special edition of the podcast include:

Charlotte Senkpiel, Fraunhofer ISE

Sitaram Chodimella, SIEMENS

Stefan Feilmeier, FENECON

Sören Vahland, GE Vernova
