The energy sector is at a large-scale inflection point for traditional business models and value chains. Roles in energy generation, distribution and consumption are changing and new technologies and market participants are creating new dynamics.

The transformation of the energy sector is also being transferred to the field of energy and mobility services provided to an increasingly demanding, proactive and connected consumer, who is more aware of sustainability and economic and energy savings.

A large number of interlinked developments converge around the consumer, involving several value chains, such as distributed generation and storage, electric mobility, digitalisation of the sector (in relation to demand), the role of the consumer, implementation of flexibility mechanisms, transformation of retail markets (commercialisation), new players (aggregators, cooperatives, energy communities) and business models related to the supply of products and services to the consumer, among others. In this context, digitalisation will be a key element of differentiation and competitive advantage in the market.

The Basque Energy Cluster wants to support Basque companies to take advantage of the business opportunities offered by this new framework and to develop a competitive technology offer of energy and mobility products and services for consumers.
