"Sharing experiences on how to overcome challenges after large scale roll out"

This unique and leading conference, which in its first year attracted 200 delegates from around the world, will focus on the smart metering related issues that really matter, including demand response and the smart grid. By attending this event you will learn from the leading edge utilities, experiences, innovations, research and visions across the Nordic region.

The Nordic region is squarely at the forefront of the European smart metering experience, leading the way to what now appears inevitable throughout the EU and beyond. It is now expected that by 2012, near-full rollout of smart meters will have been achieved in Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

What remains is to ensure that vast promise of the metering revolution is realized through its implementation. To maximize the benefits for the energy industry, the consumer and the environment, many hurdles are being overcome.

High-level presentations will look at how to effectively and efficiently implement mass smart metering rollout, considering business-case, regulatory, cross-industry cooperation, and logistical scenarios and solutions, as well as the latest innovations, developments and strategies concerning communications, data management, system integration and security.

The event will also present the very latest knowledge relating to demand response, demand-side management, energy efficiency, dynamic pricing, as well as other value added and customer-focused services facilitated through smart metering.

But don’t worry about the future. Top speakers will also present the low-down on how to turn smart metering into the smart grid.
