Seminar Abstract

Most of today’s approach to energy must rely on a central paradigm that funnel their innovation. The first paradigm relies on the technical and organizational legacy centralized large grid that can only be orchestrated by a single entity. That centralization of the decisions needed to operate the grid and the obligation to have extensive forward planning limits the capacity to quickly adapt to new technology. We need to rethink this approach. Using an integrated hardware, software and algorithm multidisciplinary approach to innovation, Ossiaco has developed the “next generation” residential energy hub that encompasses the first practical residential fast DC charger, solar inverter, home energy optimizer and API interface for utility or community collaboration. In the course of product development, Ossiaco has conducted numerous investigations and studies and this talk will highlight some of the most interesting findings and conclusions. This can lead to rethink the way we orchestrate energy and put back innovation and customer at the center of the discussion.
