Growing investments in distributed energy resources – renewable distributed energy generation combined with demand response, energy storage, plug-in electric vehicles and active management of distribution networks – will require new business and technology platforms to manage the increased level of diversity and complexity of global energy management.

The increasing variability of both generation and loads will also require more sophisticated and decentralized decision.

Mas2tering special session of Sustainable places conference will focus on:

• business vision for an optimal multi-level monitoring and management of smart grids: prosumers, local communities, regional areas, global network
• artificial intelligence, communication and security technologies to interconnect smart buildings to smart grids
• an example of smart multi-sided platform for electricity management
