Switching up the smart system: how smart meters can transform energy system resilience

Join LCP Delta and Calisen for a live webinar on how the UK's smart meter infrastructure can do more for the energy system and consumers.

Smart meters are already a major part of the UK's energy infrastructure, but could we be getting more from them?

Research by LCP Delta and Calisen found that smart meters could deliver value across the energy system, from voltage control and system optimisation to operational savings and better support for vulnerable households.

Energy bills remain under pressure, the transition is costly and resilience matters more than ever. Making better use of infrastructure that is already in place could help.

Robin Kaloustian, Senior Consultant, and Tom Veli, Partner at LCP Delta, will discuss the research findings with Catherine O’Kelly, CEO of Calisen.

They’ll discuss:

• How smart meters could provide more value across the energy system
• Where the existing infrastructure could be used more effectively
• What this could mean for resilience, costs and consumers
• A chance to revisit the June findings and explore the use cases in more detail
• Why cross-sector collaboration is needed to identify use cases and develop solutions that benefit suppliers, network operators and consumers
• The practical next steps Calisen is taking to progress on this topic

There will also be a live Q&A, with time to put your questions to the speakers.

Who should attend?

This webinar is particularly relevant to distribution system operators, smart meter manufacturers, regulators and policymakers, as well as anyone interested in smart metering and the future of the UK's energy system.
