On this episode of the Hypercube Energy Podcast, Adam Sroka speaks with Ilesh Patel, CEO of Egg Power and Chief Commercial Officer, Energy Transition at Liberty Global, about how rising power demand is reshaping the energy system and why customer-led models are becoming critical to delivering the next phase of the transition.
Ilesh shares his experience building Baringa’s global energy practice before moving into industry to launch and scale new energy transition businesses. He explains why execution, not ideas, is the biggest challenge in energy, and how focusing on real customer demand changes the way infrastructure is developed and financed.
The conversation explores a fundamental shift in the energy landscape: rapid demand growth from digital infrastructure and data centres, combined with the need to deliver clean power at scale. Ilesh outlines how corporate PPAs can help bridge the gap between ambition and delivery, and why the industry must evolve beyond traditional supply-led approaches.
Adam and Ilesh cover:
Why power demand is rising in modern energy systems
The role of corporate PPAs in scaling clean energy
Why customer-led models outperform traditional development
Execution challenges in building energy businesses
Where AI and digital tools can drive efficiency in the system
