3x the Grid: Siemens Energy and the Race to Rewire the Future
It took over a century to build today’s power grid. Now we need to triple its capacity by 2050. Why? Because demand is surging, and a net-zero future depends on a bigger, smarter, and cleaner grid. Electrification is transforming how we power transportation, buildings, industry, and data. Renewables are decentralized and intermittent. And the current grid, built for centralized fossil fuel power, wasn’t designed for what comes next.
Grid infrastructure is now one of the most urgent industrial and climate challenges of our time. Siemens Energy is at the forefront of solving it. Already, one-sixth of the electricity generated worldwide is based on its technologies. Today, it’s focused on upgrading, expanding, and digitizing the transmission backbone that the clean energy economy depends on. backbone that the clean energy economy depends on.
At the center of that transformation is Tim Holt. A member of Siemens Energy’s Executive Board, he leads its global Grid Technologies business and oversees operations across the Americas. In this episode, Tim describes what it takes to rewire the world’s power grids—and how Siemens Energy is moving fast to build the grid the clean energy future demands.
