Moving beyond siloes: assessing the opportunity and taking action.
A FRAMEWORK FOR BUILDING VALUE
Cross-industry collaboration leads to ecosystems of energy service providers offering proprietary services on top of a common blockchain platform optimized for the energy industry
Blockchain finds a few niche, largely invisible back-end applications in the energy sector (back office processes, asset management, supply chain) but never gains traction as a transformative tool
Many service providers offering proprietary blockchain platforms, highly fragmented or use-case specific energy blockchain market

“[Walt Disney] was an empirical-
data sort of guy. Everything he
planned had been tested
somewhere else. Everybody thinks
of him as this master innovator, but
his greatest skill was taking what
he saw and knew worked and
recombining it in ways that seemed
new and novel.”
