There Corporation Speaks in the Smart Grid Virtual Summit

Smart grid industry leaders There Corporation and Pöyry Management Consulting will discuss the role of the energy gateway in meeting the potential benefits of the smart grid in Europe, at the upcoming Smart Grid Virtual Summit 2010 on March 18.

Traditionally, energy production has been designed to strictly follow demand. Yet there is steadily growing interest in options for managing consumption in the electricity network. In addition, the growing amount of distributed green power generation will make it more difficult to balance other production since, for example, windmill production may shift rapidly and peak production times seldom match peak demand times.

The one-hour webcast is part of the Smart Grid Virtual Summit 2010, a full-day online conference designed to examine market developments, business issues, and technology advances driving the global smart grid industry.

Companies participating in the Summit include: Capgemini, IBM, GE Energy, American Electric Power (AEP), ECI Telecom, Midwest ISO, Southwest Transmission Cooperative, NERC, Telvent, EnerNOC, Halton Hills Hydro, SubNet Soutions, and others.
