On 26 March 2024 from 14:00 to 15:30 CET, the Policy Learning Platform is organising a webinar on smart energy management. 

Sensors, analytics and automation can help smart energy management systems to collect and analyse real-time data to make informed decisions, optimise energy consumption, reduce waste, and lower costs. As well as working on an individual building or district level, smart energy technologies are core to the creation of the smart grid. 

Smart energy management is recognised as a key enabler of the low-carbon transition.

Public authorities need to play a key role in their uptake by:

• supporting households and businesses
• making use of technologies in their buildings and facilities
• supporting further technological development

During this webinar, we will explore the importance of energy performance monitoring and automation, by the use of good practice from across Europe.
