SUMMARY:The Future of Smart Energy in NZ: FlexTalk's Journey to 100+ Connected Homes
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin us for an insightful webinar detailing the journey and key learnings from the FlexTalk Seed project\, which is now scaling up to connect over 100 homes with smart technology.\nWe’ll share how this initiative\, in partnership with TLC’s Community Solar Initiative\, is paving the way for consumers to effortlessly optimise their energy use. \nDuring this session\, you’ll discover: \n\nHow open standards enable seamless communication between energy systems and devices\nThe tangible benefits of smart technology for energy optimisation in homes\nReal-world experiences in the installation and setup of smart devices\nRecommended products and connection methods for successful deployments\nKey feedback from both the installers and the homeowners involved\nOur plan to scale demand flexibility across Aotearoa\, including the technology and approach for connecting 100+ homes\n\nWhat is FlexTalk? \nFlexTalk is a collaborative program led by the EEA and EECA\, uniting industry partners to explore and implement solutions for demand flexibility.  Our work empowers businesses\, consumers\, and service providers to actively participate in a smarter electricity grid.  Previous FlexTalk phases have successfully tested open communication protocols like OpenADR. Read more. \nThe FlexTalk Seed project provided crucial practical experience in installing and managing smart devices including home energy management systems (HEMS) and hot water/AC monitoring and control in residential settings\, setting the stage for larger-scale deployments. HEMS act as a central hub\, connecting appliances and energy resources to optimise electricity use\, aiming to reduce costs. \nPhase 3 is currently underway\, focusing on installing HEMS in over 100 homes in collaboration with The Lines Company. We are applying the valuable lessons learned from our earlier phases to deliver tangible benefits to consumers at scale. \nSpeakers \nDr. Stuart Johnson (EEA)\, Connie Dunbar (EEA/Assurity Consulting)\, Terry Paddy (Cortexo)\, Romesh Anandaraja (Ivory Egg) \nRegister for the Webinar \nTo register for the webinar which is via MSTeam use this link here: Register for this webinar

SUMMARY:Temporary Traffic Management: Webinar 27th March
DESCRIPTION:The New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) have recently published The New Zealand guide to temporary traffic management (NZGTTM).  The Guide moves away from the traditional scenario based guidance\, to outlining how to use a risk-based approach to plan and mitigate the risks to road workers and road users to keep them safe. \nThe EEA through the Temporary Traffic Management Working Group have developed a document that provides practical guidance for Electricity Distribution Business’s (EDBs) to assist with the consideration of major risk factors and assessment of the appropriate risk mitigation and control measures involved with work\, which is of short term duration\, low risk to road users\, and carried out in the road reserve\, i.e. not in a live lane. \nTo support the release of this guide the EEA will be hosting a webinar explaining the background and application the guide. \nJoin us at 2pm on the 27th March to hear more. \nOur thanks go out to the working group supporting the industry with the publication the Temporary Traffic Management – Risk-based Scenarios Electrical Distribution Industry. \nTo register for the webinar which is via MSTeam use this link here: Register for this webinar
