# Event Details

- **Event Name**: CleanTech Meetup | Intelligence on the Grid
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The electric grid is at an inflection point. AI-driven load growth, aging infrastructure, and surging electricity demand are pushing a century-old system in ways it was never designed for — sparking urgent debates about how to keep the lights on, who gets to shape the solution, and whether we're asking the right questions in the first place.

​Join CleanStart for an evening focused on the future of the grid, featuring perspectives on the technologies, policies, and strategies driving — and disrupting — the energy transition. Located at Kora Power's office.

​This meetup will bring together founders, utilities, researchers, investors, and public-sector partners for an open, practical conversation about what it will actually take to modernize the grid — and who gets to decide.

​Join a Discussion Around:

​The "utilization vs. expansion" debate — should we build new capacity or get more out of what we already have?

​Grid coordination and planning at scale — why the biggest constraint may not be hardware

​The role of data centers, AI, and big tech in shaping grid infrastructure

​Distributed energy resources, virtual power plants, and demand flexibility

​Business models, policy, and what cleantech entrepreneurs need to know right now

​​Includes: Food, Drinks, and Plenty of Time for Conversation.

​​CleanStart Events are supported by SMUD, BlueTech Valley, and Witan Law.
