SunCast 802: 12,000x Faster: Why Xendee is the new Microgrid standard, with CEO Adib Nasle
Microgrids are essential to the clean energy future—but they’re still too complex, slow, and unbankable. That’s the problem Adib Naslé set out to solve. With Xendee, he’s built a platform that makes distributed energy systems faster to plan, easier to finance, and smarter to operate.
Nico digs into how Adib and his team turned 20 years of national lab research into a commercial product now used by governments, fleet operators, developers and data centers. If you want to understand where AI, microgrids, and electrification converge—this is the episode for you.
🔹 The 3 biggest choke points in microgrid adoption
🔹 Why software, not hardware, is the key to energy independence
🔹 How Xendee is supporting Neom, Fiji, and Travel Centers of America
🔹 The power of dynamic forecasting and rolling 72-hour optimization
