Press Clipping - The Scaling Green-Tech Podcast

ENODA founder and Chief Policy and Global Affairs Officer Paul Domjan recently joined the Scaling Green-Tech podcast to explore why the future of the energy transition depends not just on building more renewables, but on fundamentally rethinking the grid itself.

Speaking with hosts Katherine Keddie and Matt Jaworski, Co-Founders of Adopter, Paul reflected on his journey from oil and gas at Shell to developing NATO’s first energy security strategy, and ultimately founding ENODA in 2021. His core insight: the energy transition is as much a systems challenge as it is a generation challenge.

Paul explained how legacy grid infrastructure is struggling under the pressure of intermittent renewables, distributed energy resources, and surging demand from AI data centres. From harmonics and power quality issues that can waste up to 10% of generated electricity, to grids designed for predictable power flows, he argued that flexibility must become the priority.

The discussion explored ENODA’s integrated hardware and software platform, designed to replace outdated distribution infrastructure with intelligent, real-time grid management. By enabling smart distributed frequency balancing, the technology aims to resolve the energy trilemma of security, affordability, and sustainability.

The episode also explored technology-agnostic policymaking, global differences in grid strategy across the US, Europe, and China, and why energy must be treated as critical infrastructure for future prosperity.

For founders, investors, and policymakers navigating the next phase of grid modernisation, this episode offers a technical perspective on what it will take to build a resilient, flexible, and scalable energy system.
