As we move ever closer towards Europe’s 2020 plan for 80% market penetration of Smart

Meters, roll-outs across the continent are taking shape and provide valuable insight into the road

ahead. As a new development for this 7th annual event, previously divided Smart Metering UK

and Smart Metering Europe conferences will join forces to examine the key developments and

challenges facing the region’s smart metering deployments. The conference will examine recent

UK and EU-wide directives driving the smart metering market, topics such as: cost-benefit

analysis, financing large scale smart metering projects, and case study experiences from both

leading and independent utilities.

It has been estimated that by 2019, energy bills will be spared approximately £10 billion a year by

smart cities. With policy adaptations being implemented across Europe so as to facilitate smart

city progression, this conference will explore the role of, and implication for, utilities in the mix.

The conference will feature insights into the evolution of the Internet of Things & the connected

home, data and ROI concerns, as well as highlighting the opportunities and benefits through

case study presentations on some of the world’s smartest cities.

The Smart Grids conference will consider not only ongoing smart grid project developments

across Europe but also the increasingly vital integration of renewables, the need for flexibility

and effective response to unpredictability, and the potential for future regulation and policy

to assist smart grid optimisation. Speakers will include smart grid project leaders, technology

companies, TSOs, regulators and utilities.

As big data and data analysis begin to take increasingly prominent positions within the energy

ecosystem, new players join the market and create increased competition, as well as shaking

up traditional business models. New solutions for efficiency, reliability, consumer engagement

and security, pave the way for new regulatory frameworks and policies. With the integration

of renewable energy sources into the grid and energy storage consequently a key focus in the

smart energy matrix, the energy storage conference plays a vital role in raising issues of storage

applications and capacity, flexibility, the predicted surge in domestic solar storage, and much

more.

Smart water metering has taken huge strides in recent months, with new UK roll-outs in the

pipeline and innovation across Europe pushing the industry towards new levels of market

potential, the Smart Water conference will play host in exploring the expectations, challenges,

key developments and regulation shaping the progression of European smart water metering.

This stream will also highlight the progress of smart gas metering within Europe and provide

insight in Smart Water and Smart Gas projects through case studies with industry leaders.
