The theme is how to make real estate more valuable and less wasteful, by using better buildings control, and power transfer technologies, such as smart-metering and send-back, temperature sensors, distant control, and lower loss pylons; design, renewable and energy-efficient technologies such as solar, wind, CHP, heat pumps, fuel cells and micro-generation. We'll also discuss new, more passive buildings. Our aim is to build markets that fulfil the new regulations, while improving buildings and quality of life.
As Jeremy Leggett said: 'Solar energy is primed to be the next great business revolution'. Jim Wallace Director of Emerging Markets at the world's leading chip design company from Cambridge, ARM Holdings plc is looking to a world of 'ARM powered Energy Efficiency. Intelligence can be used to measure, manage and control the environmental performance of homes and buildings, while improving their functional performance and reducing their carbon footprint. ARM designs the technology at the heart of these Low Power products. This ARM presentation will outline some of the techniques used in intelligent building control and show how ARM technology underpins this intelligence across a range of performance points.' Bob Flint of Ceres Power believes that 'residential microgeneration has tremendous potential in the low carbon economy' and John Halfpenny CEO CMR plc holds that: 'Methanol powered Fuel Cells will be the next generation of long-running, cost-effective power sources for the global portable electronics industry'. We'll hear from all of them at this event!
HEAT 2007 will bring together electronics and communications, and utilities companies, large and small; architects, constructors, property developers, designers, manufacturers; as well as government, academic and agency players.
We welcome Prashant Vaze, team leader of the Office of Climate Change's Heat project, to join Jim Wallace (Director, ARM Holdings plc - confirmed), Alan South (CIO, Solar Century plc - confirmed), John Halfpenny (CMR Fuel Cells plc - confirmed) and Bob Flint (Ceres Power plc - confirmed), and Dr Garry Staunton (Head of Low Carbon Research, the Carbon Trust - confirmed) as keynote speakers. One important deliverable of the event is to write a letter to the new head of government and responsible for energy issues and property summarising the knowledge derived and shared at the event. Limited exhibition stand space is available to book.
