Maximise Energy Efficiency & Power Resilience – Seminar On Demand

On Thursday, 12th March 2020, Powerstar CEO Dr Alex Mardapittas delivered an informative seminar on how to maximise energy efficiency and power resilience.

Whilst accommodating the growth of electricity usage, the National Grid is experiencing an increasing number of grid events from voltage spikes and dips to brownouts all of which cause severe disruption to the critical and sensitive operations of businesses. And despite the UK leading the G20 for decarbonisation rates with a recorded 3.7% annual reduction, to achieve the UK net zero target, annual reduction levels need to be increased to 9.7%.

Therefore, businesses must ensure they are enhancing their power resilience to avoid costly downtime, wasted resources and undoing the positive actions towards sustainability they are making in other areas, and upgrade energy infrastructure to become more flexible and efficient, and reduce energy usage.

To combat all areas, businesses can deploy energy storage solutions with full power resilience capabilities which when deployed with voltage regulation and alongside local generation, provides a robust solution for the journey towards net-zero.

Brian Reeves, Head of Facilities Management at The Design Museum gave a guest talk about a Powerstar VIRTUE installation at the museum’s London site, which is optimising the organisation’s energy management, and providing savings on their significant energy costs.

Listen to Alex and Brian’s discussion in this informative seminar as they explore how businesses can maximise energy efficiency and power resilience.
