Discover how cutting edge, real time energy data can transform the way industrial facilities operate in this engaging 90 minute seminar on modern energy management. Learn how IoT enabled metering, granular circuit level monitoring, and AI driven analytics reveal exactly where buildings and equipment waste energy and helping engineers reduce consumption, cut costs, and improve operational efficiency. See how turning assets into SMART systems provides the clarity needed to make informed decisions.

Data centres are evolving rapidly due to the growing demand for cloud computing, AI, data storage, and digital services. A significant amount of electric energy used by data centres is dedicated to cooling. The innovative super performance dew point cooling system developed by the team at the University of Hull is not only environmentally friendly and cost-effective, but it can also reduce electric energy consumption by up to 90% compared to traditional refrigeration systems.

The transition to Net Zero will require a significant increase in the number of low carbon technologies (LCTs) being connected to the Low Voltage (LV) Network, including Electric Vehicles (EV), Heat Pumps (HP) and Photovoltaics (PV). As LCTs are mainly single phase and an inverter-based technology, they may have a negative impact on power quality (PQ), particularly, harmonics.

The Viking Link is the world's longest land and subsea electricity interconnector, a 1.4 GW cable connecting the UK (Lincolnshire) and Denmark (southern Jutland) to share clean energy, improving security and potentially lowering costs for up to 2.5 million homes by linking to Denmark's renewable sources. This visit will give an overview of the overview of the construction, operation and maintenance of the facility.
