GLocalFlex partners with CTU Prague and IEA’s Annex 82 for Energy Flexibility Forum on May 15th

The GLocalFlex project is organising an engaging panel discussion on May 15th in the heart of Prague, titled ‘Energy Flexibility Forum: Advancing Building and Community Management Solutions.’

10 Apr 2024

This event, moderated by CTU in Prague, will feature a dynamic panel with three distinguished experts from the esteemed International Energy Agency’s EBC Annex 82 initiative and three leading representatives from the pioneering EU-funded GLocalFlex project.

The event will be held in a hybrid format on May 15th, from 15:00 to 17:00 CET. You can attend in person at the Center for Architecture and Metropolitan Planning in Prague, or online via web stream.

Who’s on the panel? The speakers will include experts contributing to IEA-EBC Annex 82 and GLocalFlex. The International Energy Agency (IEA)-EBC Annex 82 initiative is a scientific network that provides a unique space for sharing ideas across nations on the topic of ‘Energy Flexible Buildings Towards Resilient Low Carbon Energy Systems’. In parallel, the HorizonEU GLocalFlex project aims to drive demand-response by introducing a novel energy flexibility marketplace, enabling consumers of all sizes to contribute their flexibility. Panellists from both initiatives will share their knowledge and experiences.
