Energy transition M&A is set for a pivotal year — with AI, grid pressure and clean‑energy scaling reshaping dealmaking at speed. Here we take a closer look at energy transition M&A and what we expect for 2026: 🖥️ AI is redefining energy M&A: Surging power demand is making power generation and data‑centre infrastructure the most competitive deal arenas ⚡ Portfolio deals dominate: Sellers are bundling operating assets with late‑stage development to optimise valuations and reduce grid/permitting risk 🔗 Deal structures are evolving: Earn‑outs, interconnection‑linked value mechanisms and joint ventures are increasingly used to navigate grid queues, supply‑chain volatility and policy uncertainty Scroll to discover our latest experience and explore our outlook on energy transition M&A further:https://lnkd.in/eXUvFi76

The PowerIntel team kicked off RE+ Northeast yesterday, and the energy here is incredible. It's inspiring to see so many innovators, developers, and utilities coming together to shape the Northeast's clean energy future. We've had fantastic conversations about how long-term price forecasting and market intelligence are becoming essential tools for project developers navigating transmission constraints, evolving capacity markets, and the region's ambitious decarbonization goals. A few themes already emerging: 💡 The critical role of energy storage in managing ISO-NE and NYISO market dynamics 🧭 How sophisticated modeling can de-risk investment decisions in an increasingly complex regulatory environment 🔎 The growing need for granular, locational insights as developers compete for interconnection capacity Looking forward to more great discussions today. If you're at the show, stop by and let's talk about where the grid is headed. #REPlusNortheast #EnergyModeling #RenewableEnergy #EnergyStorage

Like everyone in the electricity industry, Jindalee Energy loves ❤️ the NEM Dashboard from AEMO. It’s become a daily go to for market participants, developers, investors, and policy watchers alike. ⚡📊 That said, there’s an opportunity to make a great tool even more powerful. 🔎 What we’d love to see next is more detail on Price and Demand: 📅 Longer-term visibility — beyond the current 24-hour window 📈 Historical trends — past year, year-on-year comparisons 📊 Quarterly views — to understand structural demand and price shifts 🔁 Overlay capability — comparing seasons, events, or volatility periods As Australia accelerates the energy transition, access to deeper, more intuitive market data isn’t just “nice to have” , it supports better investment decisions, planning confidence, and system understanding across the sector. The NEM is becoming more complex every year. Tools that help the industry interpret that complexity will only grow in value. Curious to hear from others, what features would you add to the dashboard? Thank you Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO).

Myr Group Inc.'s upcoming participation in the Jefferies Power, Energy, & Clean Energy Utilities Conference highlights a critical trend: the clean energy sector is accelerating, and strategic participation in these forums is key for growth and collaboration. For Canadian clean energy firms, this underscores the constant need to stay ahead of regulatory shifts, technological advancements, and market opportunities. The challenge lies in efficiently navigating this complex information landscape—where critical insights are often buried in dispersed documents, reports, and compliance databases. This is where intelligent knowledge management becomes a strategic advantage. In a sector defined by rapid evolution and stringent compliance, the ability to instantly unify and interrogate all your organizational knowledge isn't just convenient; it's essential for informed decision-making and maintaining a competitive edge. At KnowledgeNexus, we apply advanced AI and dynamic knowledge graphs specifically for this purpose. Our platform transforms how clean energy organizations access, organize, and share critical information. By breaking down information silos, we dramatically reduce search times from hours to seconds and uncover hidden connections between regulatory requirements, project data, and market intelligence. This allows teams to focus on innovation and strategic execution, rather than manual information hunting. As the clean energy landscape grows more complex, how is your organization ensuring that critical knowledge is instantly accessible to drive both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance? We believe the future belongs to those who can harness their collective intelligence most effectively.
