As part of our ongoing effort to promote a dialogue about smart and sustainable thinking, BuiltWorlds is excited to present part four in our SmartWorlds Initiative, Future Energy. With the increasing density and population of urban eco-systems, a key issue arises: the need for future cities to be powered by safe, reliable and non-polluting energy systems.
Energy generation resources are now being enhanced by battery storage capabilities; thus, causing constituents within the energy value chain to rethink the projects they build and the technologies they use. The emergence of Distributed Energy Resources and micro-grids into our energy chain is changing the way power is managed, distributed and used. SmartWorlds: Future Energy is designed to help our community gain valuable insights and connections to meet the challenges and opportunities these fundamental changes represent.
