EnergyLab Perth Smart Buildings Series: Demand Response

Since the construction of the first electricity grid in the late 19th century, progress has followed a predictable path. Matching energy supply to demand is hugely important for a reliable grid, but what if we could instead match the demand to the supply? With IoT technology being integrated into more applications than ever, there is huge potential for controlling energy demand and increasing the efficiency of the grid. In this event, brought to you by EnergyLab, we explore how buildings can react in order to benefit both the building owner and the electricity grid. We hope you can join us for drinks and a discussion on demand response with a panel of experts. This is a chance to meet like-minded people to discuss startup opportunities in smart buildings. Free to attend, drinks provided. The panel Panelists to be announced soon. Timing 5:30pm: Doors open 6:00pm: Panel discussion followed by Q&A with the audience 7:00pm: Continue the discussion over drinks and light snacks 8:00pm: Event concludes About EnergyLab EnergyLab is Australia’s leading platform for launching new energy businesses.
