"Sustainable mobility is a core concern for all industrial players and public authorities. It affects both our lifestyles and our economy, as well as facing major changes, such as electrification, connectivity and driverless vehicles. To be prepared for these changes, it is essential to fully understand how to be used in future mobility, together with the related business models and issues surrounding social acceptability."

These issues will be addressed at the EVS32 International Electric Vehicle Symposium & Exhibition held on the 19th to 22nd of May in Lyon, France. 

Delta-ee's John Murray, principal analyst, will attend the event and Delta-ee's Alexander Lewis-Jones, analyst / EVs & electricity research service manager, will speak at the event on "Who is the EV customer? ‘Early adopter’ customer segmentation". Find more information on the event at https://www.evs32.org/.

The Scottish Renewables Low-Carbon Heat Conference 2019 will take place on Tuesday 30 April in Glasgow. "The reality for low-carbon heat continues to be slow but steady growth. But there are many reasons to be optimistic about the sector’s future." The Conference will survey opportunities from emerging policies and look to provide constructive advice on the economic future of the low-carbon heat sector.

Delta-ee's principal analyst, Jennifer Arran, will speak on the "Hydrogen: the future’s hybrid?" panel. "In recent years hydrogen has loomed large in the heat debate. 2018 saw the publication of both a highly anticipated review of the fuel's potential by the Committee on Climate Change and a UK Government review of the available evidence. With the CCC suggesting electric and hydrogen heat could be complementary, could both live side by side in the future? Could, and should, hydrogen save the gas grid?".

The Western Power Distrubution & EA Technology Workshop will take place in Birmingham on Wednesday 10 April. The workshop will comprise presentations from senior WPD personnel and partners at EA Technology on proposed methodology to accommodate the likely increase in demand on the network as a result of EV charging. "The predicted growth in Electric Vehicle (EVs) presents a number of challenges for DNOs and the wider industry. Reinforcement of the network to accommodate the additional demand required could result in extra expense and disruption, unless smarter solutions can be found." Kate Armitage will attend the event on behlaf of Delta-ee. For more information visit https://www.westernpower.co.uk/. 

The European Workshop on Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) will take place on Tuesday 1st - Wednesday 2nd October in Thessaloniki, Greece. "The EU NILM Workshop is now in its sixth year! The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers that are working on the topic of energy disaggregation in both academia and industry. The workshop will feature two full days of conference-style material". Delta-ee's principal analyst / customer data value advisory service manager, David Trevithik, will attend the event.
