In our inaugural Tech2Energy podcast, Garry Golden and I talk about potentially disruptive technology in energy. We discuss how to think about disruptive technology and examples of potential disruptive technologies.
Energy — whether it’s the petroleum industry for transportation, or the electric utility industry for everything else — has a scale to it that appears to work against innovation at the customer end.
