Systems thinking for the energy transition

From asset thinking to systems thinking
11 May 2026

The energy transition is not just a technical challenge. It is a mindset challenge.

In this video, Tej Gidda (Distinguished Technical Leader, GHD) explains why leaders must expand electricity grids while also decarbonising them as demand accelerates. He highlights why no single technology will define the transition, and how a systems-based approach, including integrating and co-locating solutions like solar and batteries, can deliver more reliable, lower-carbon outcomes for communities.

Quick snippets on:

  • the shift from asset-based to systems thinking
  • how to expand the grid while decarbonising it
  • integrating multiple solutions, including co-location where it adds value

Watch this video to learn why systems thinking is critical to delivering the energy transition.
