Software tool alone doesn't make a trading desk.
Helmut Spindler on building Europe's largest intraday trading platform, and why talent still beats tooling.
THE CONTROL ROOM | A PODCAST FROM VOLUE
The conversations that shape how European energy thinks, with the people inside it.
Listen to The Control Room on Spotify, and YouTube.
Europe's power system is being rebuilt in real time. The thinking behind it moves faster than any report can capture.
The Control Room brings that thinking into the open. Each episode takes one shift in the system, market design, forecasting, flexibility, AI in operations, and works through it with someone who deals with it directly.
You hear the reasoning, not the conclusion alone. What the data supports. Where the models strain. Which assumptions the market still prices in, and how long they hold.
All upcoming episodes.
Helmut Spindler on building Europe's largest intraday trading platform, and why talent still beats tooling.
Follow the podcast and the thinking reaches you first.
Grid operators and network planners. Utilities and retailers. Generators and asset owners across hydro, wind, solar and storage. Traders, forecasters and analysts. Regulators, industrial energy buyers, and the executives who set the direction for all of them.
The podcast assumes you know the fundamentals of your own part of the system. It spends its time on what remains contested, and on what the parts next to yours are about to demand.
