Can Rooftops Solve Our Energy Crisis?
July 20, 2026
How can our rooftops become the next frontier of clean energy?
In this episode of The Connector on @weareticker @HarperB-global Belinda Coates sits down with Chris Griffin, CEO and Founder of Hover Energy, to explore how innovative technology is transforming commercial buildings into power-generating assets.
As cities face growing energy demands from AI, electrification and data centres, Chris explains why decentralised energy systems, rooftop wind generation and intelligent microgrids could reshape the future of sustainable urban development.
The conversation explores how artificial intelligence is changing the way buildings generate, store and consume energy, why investors are increasingly backing distributed energy infrastructure, and what governments, property owners and technology innovators must do to build more resilient, self-sufficient cities.
