Energy Innovation Summit

Finding Value in Volatility

Increasing volatility across energy systems is creating a new generation of decision problems. Weather, market prices, storage, flexibility, customer demand, local constraints, and new energy carriers increasingly influence one another. The challenge is no longer just understanding this complexity, but turning it into decisions that are feasible, trusted, and useful in practice. This is the focus of the Energy Innovation Summit Switzerland 2026, taking place on 17–18 November 2026 in Zurich, co-hosted by Gurobi and EMPA, in collaboration with EMPA’s Urban Energy Systems Laboratory: Finding Value in Volatility.

Finding Value in Volatility

The summit brings together energy practitioners, researchers, software providers, utilities, asset operators, industrial energy users, and decision-makers from across Europe to discuss how organizations are using optimization to improve planning, trading, flexibility, asset management, infrastructure, and operational decision-making. Attendees will hear practical experiences from peers, benchmark their own thinking, and explore what separates a promising model from a decision system people actually trust and use in daily operations.
