Smart Energy Events

The Nordic region is one of the early adopters of the smart metering business and therefore leading the way to what now appears inevitable throughout the EU and beyond. It is now expected that by 2014, near-full rollout of smart meters will have been achieved in Finland, Sweden and Norway and Denmark.

The 3rd edition of Smart Metering Scandinavia will take place in Denmark and is expected to attract over 250 delegates from Europe’s leading companies involved in the smart metering business.

The uptake of smart metering in Denmark is increasing and the Danish Government will follow its Nordic Neighbors and initiate legislation in 2010. However distribution companies are already implementing AMR projects driven by the administrative and operational advantages provided by AMR meters. Support for – and stimulation of – energy savings is also an important objective for these projects and Denmark’s exceptionally high level of wind generation make smart meter enabled demand response and customer feedback programmes of special interest. The deployment of electric vehicles is also an immediate concern, increasing the dynamic nature of Denmark’s electricity market.

During the 2-day conference insights will be given in the developments and challenges which a “mature” smart metering market is facing nowadays. High-level presentations will look at how to effectively and efficiently implement mass smart metering rollout, considering the business-case, regulatory challenges, cross-industry cooperation, data handling and the importance of value added services by using your smart metering in an advanced way!
