About the session
Organised by the IET
The IET is pleased to host presentations and a panel discussion on the first year findings from the work of DECC/Ofgem Smart Grid Forum Work Stream 9 (WS9) – Technological Innovation and Growth.
SGF – WS9 held a session at All-Energy 2015 in which it presented its ambition to identify the challenges for the Smart Grid supply chain, especially the SME community, and to propose recommendations on how to engage more SMEs in innovation deployment activity.
This year we report on the outcomes achieved to date. These outcomes address use of the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) to build a common lexicon to enable effective communication between stakeholders. The outcomes also consider the nature and behaviours of key aspects of the supply chain from market, technical, commercial and societal perspectives. Horizon scanning plays a role in substantiating these outcomes.
The work is now entering its second stage and we will present out current thinking on upcoming project activities. In addition, we will seek comments that may help shape this work and invite participation as it moves forward.
The speakers will be drawn from the WS9 team.
