CITIES invites to Workshop / Webinar August 12, 2020, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM CEST
In the quest for fossil-free cities and a fossil-free building sector, there is continued need to maximise energy efficiency of buildings and energy systems in cities. Even the limited energy use should to a maximum possible extent come from renewable sources, and the classical challenge of balancing demand and supply becomes an issue, which calls for flexible operation of all units.
Contemporary digital and data-driven methods are key to optimize the operation of buildings and district energy systems such that use of fossil fuels can be minimized without compromising on comfort and functionality of the built environment. The workshop will give an overview of potentials and state-of-the-art technologies in the field.
During a week, 44 young researchers got ‘hands-on’ experience with statistical modelling techniques for smart energy systems and intelligent energy savings, including calculating solar energy gain in buildings. — 44 PhD students and postdocs mainly from universities in Europe have spent last week of August at DTU Compute to learn about smart energy systems and …
Flexible Energy Denmark (FED) is a new 44 mill dkr project, funded primarily by Innovation Fund Denmark, and proactive players in the Danish electricity sector. According to the scientific project leader, Professor Henrik Madsen (DTU Compute), aims at establishing a national digital infrastructure for the near 100 pct fossil-free society: This infrastructure is built on …
Accelerating the clean energy transition – workshop, European Parliament, June 27 – 16.00-18.00. Henrik Madsen is keynote speaker at a workshop in the European Parliament (EP) on June 27. Madsen will in his keynote presentation focus on the importance of ICT technologies in the overall energy transition. Buildings account for approximately one third of energy use and …
