Energy 101: We Ask The Dumb Questions So You Don't Have To

Why Digitizing Energy Infrastructure Is So Hard


Listen Later

Sean Kelley knows that digital tools aren’t just shiny add-ons, they’re the backbone of how energy companies can work smarter and faster. In this conversation, Jacob and Julie dig into the real ways technology is cutting inefficiencies, like replacing clunky paper forms with sleek digital systems or using AI to help leaders make decisions with confidence. Sean doesn’t sugarcoat the challenges either, touching on change management, centralizing data, and the sometimes-messy process of getting everyone on board with new tools. Along the way, there are plenty of laughs, practical examples, and insights that’ll make you think differently about where energy and tech intersect and maybe even how you could clean up inefficiencies in your own world.
