Over 350 register for Virtual Building Resilience Event as Energy Transition Accelerates
Posted by: electime 9th August 2023
More than 350 UK specifiers registered for Eaton Electrical’s latest virtual event about Building Resilience. The company states that this reflects the growing pressure on consultants to decarbonise their buildings and meet higher levels of safety.
The event was one of a series that are planned throughout the year both in person and virtually.
Says Marc Gaunt, Eaton’s Commercial and Industrial Segment Manager, “In the face of climate change, new legislation and higher energy costs specifiers are having to design and plan more efficient and resilient buildings. The pace of change is accelerating and so is the technology so it is vital that we share information about the latest advances and best practice.”
The virtual day-long event allowed consultants to see and take part in a series of CPD accredited presentations covering topics such as energy storage, electric vehicle charging, using buildings as a grid to manage energy and minimise costs, critical power provision and emergency lighting. The event also had a number of breakout rooms where attendees could question experts from Eaton.
If you missed the event, you can see many of the CPD accredited webinars from the event alongside whitepapers, technical guides and examples of best practice on Eaton’s Specification Portal.
The next specifiers’ event will be on September 27th in Central London at Ruben at the Palace hotel. There will be a CPD accredited presentation on the role of Energy storage in commercial buildings followed by a social event for networking, subject to capacity the event can be registered for here
Concludes Gaunt: “With more of us working from home, we have to find new ways of keeping up to date with technology and legislation. Our specifier portal is a learning space where we share information and where we arrange both virtual and in person events so that we can all learn from each other.
