Tomorrow’s energy infrastructure: building towards a secure and robust energy system

The energy transition is in full swing, but without future-proof infrastructure, progress risks stalling. How can we ensure that tomorrow’s energy system is ready to meet the growing demand for electricity, hydrogen and heat? In this episode of the TNO podcast, we explore the world of energy infrastructure — the often invisible yet vital backbone of a sustainable energy system.

From ambition to collaboration and implementation

The energy transition requires more than ambition — it demands infrastructure that can adapt and scale. So how do we ensure our energy system is prepared for what lies ahead? And how do we prevent grid congestion and planning delays from slowing down the transition?

In this TNO podcast, we discuss the future of our energy infrastructure. Together with René Peters (Proposition Manager Energy Infrastructure, focusing on system integration, hydrogen and offshore energy, TNO), Tara van Abkoude (Business Developer Hydrogen and Water Electrolysis, TNO), and Miriam van Groen (Programme Manager, GroenvermogenNL), we explore the challenges and opportunities of system integration, infrastructure planning and collaboration between government, grid operators and industry.

More on energy infrastructure

The energy transition demands major changes in how we manage energy. Electricity grids are reaching their limits, we aim to reduce dependence on energy imports, and at the same time, greenhouse gas emissions must be significantly reduced. Robust energy infrastructure and transport systems are essential to achieving this.
