Piešťany, June 4–5, 2025 – Stop scrolling. The seventh edition of ČSEF is here—and it brings suspense, an all-star cast, unexpected twists and questions others are afraid to ask. Forget ordinary conferences—this is the energy festival of the year.

This time, you can enjoy five cinematic segments packed with suspense!

The race against time: Batteries worth billions

Directed by: Jiří Strnad
A thriller about whether we are building a new pillar of the energy sector—or inflating a battery bubble that could burst before the lights come on. Gigawatt-scale plans, subsidies worth billions and one key question: is this salvation or a trap?

Mission Impossible: State vs. market

Directed by: Blahoslav Němeček A tragicomedy about who gets to call the shots. Regulators, lawmakers, investors—everyone is writing the script for the electricity market. But who controls the main storyline?

Grid Fiction: Wanted—a place on the grid

Directed by: Vladimír Tošovský A drama about every kilowatt-hour trying to get onto the grid. Limited capacity, lengthy processes and investment adrenaline—how does this game play out in the Czech Republic and Slovakia?

Forrest Grid: Energy is like a box of chocolates…

Directed by: Milan Garbiar An adventure satire in which trading intervals change from one day to the next and platforms ALPACA, MARI and PICASSO become the main characters in a story about the future of flexibility.

Wonder Deal: The power of the market

Directed by: Žaneta Müllerová Business sci-fi about what electricity trading looks like when it turns into a reality show. Wholesale, retail, subsidies, auctions—and the final question: who ends up footing the bill?
