What are the Innovation Labs?

The Innovation Labs are how we identify your unique business and energy challenges and transform them into new solutions to meet your current and future needs in a customized and collaborative environment.

How do the Innovation Labs work?

 

We evaluate alongside you your business and energy goals, and if the best solution to meet your goals doesn’t exist yet, we’ll create it.

Our AES experts take you through our proven innovation roadmap that is supported by new technologies, specialized teams and proven methodologies that you can now access at an Innovation Lab – either in person, digitally or in a simulated virtual reality environment.
