Smart Home Energy Management Summit 2011

Discover Why HEM, Smart Appliances and Consumer Engagement are integral to smart grid success

Consumers are becoming increasingly conscious of the energy they use. The challenge is ensuring that all stakeholders are working together to create solutions that will motivate consumers to buy in to the concept of smart grid. HEMS users will reach 63 million by 2020, up from just over 1 million in 2011- clearly there are enormous opportunities on the horizon. However, some big questions still need to be answered: what protocols are these manufacturers/appliance makers going to use? How do you ensure the appliances and the HEMS are interoperable? How will the HEMS work with utility demand response programs? And have the benefits for HEMS and smart appliances really been made clear to customers?

Attend this conference and you will:

• Realize the true potential of the smart energy home: Understand why and how key players must work together now to leverage HEMS
• Maximize energy efficiency: Assess the impact HEMS and smart appliances will have on utility energy management via demand response programs
• Engage the energy consumer: Discover what utilities, technology providers and appliance manufacturers need to do to increase consumer understanding and adoption
• Evaluate the latest standards: Examine the possible protocols and determine the best way forward. Guarantee your HEMS and smart appliances are interoperable, secure and future proofed
  .
• Stay ahead of the curve: Explore lucrative new opportunities as the grid extends into the home. Make sure your R&D strategy is relevant and robust.

PLUS

• Thought leadership presentations from forward thinking appliance makers, utilities and HEMS manufacturers.
