Can independent innovators fix our power sector?
Octopus Energy has over 11 million customers worldwide and a reputation as an innovator—but Octopus NZ COO Margaret Cooney says that in Aotearoa, market settings are holding them back. In the face of security of supply issues and rising costs, Margaret believes our energy sector has been “complacent” for too long. So are there smarter ways to optimise power delivery? Should we be importing innovations like 'zero-bill homes'? What will it take for the country to get ahead of the demand curve? And if we have more than 50 electricity providers, why does Margaret say choice is dwindling for Kiwi households? Plus, Margaret explains how technology can help consumers schedule their demand to reduce power bills and support the adoption of renewables.
