Further Information
This conference addressed some of the following issues and questions: Has a strong and clear enough case been made so far for a European smart grid? What future social and economic benefits would the European smart grid bring? What might a market for smart grid technologies and energy tariffs look like? How will spectrum and bandwidth considerations determine the possibilities the smart grid will offer, particularly in terms of the Internet of Things and smarter homes? The conference will also assess the critical matter of standardisation, and the twin issues of grid security and stability.
