The UK is investing £100M’s to revolutionise its energy infrastructure, to help us get to Net Zero and adapt to huge changes in energy supply (e.g. renewable energy) and demand (e.g. vehicles).
Through a competitive process, Icebreaker One (working with Arup and Hippo Digital) has won funding from BEIS to enhance and expand its work on Open Energy. These programmes will run over the course of June-July 2021.
As part of this, we are running three outreach and engagement programmes with the sector.
Today, we have three calls to action
- Tell us about your needs
Outcome: clear descriptions of the needs of the market and its practitioners
Sign up here for a short 1:1 interview - Shape national energy data standards and glossary through an Industry Advisory Group
Outcome: descriptions, and alignment around descriptions, of the specific needs of data standards and glossary.
Sign up for the Advisory Group via edvp@icebreakerone.org
(details of all Open Energy Advisory Groups below)
- Showcase your innovation — with potential cash awards up to £7k
Outcome: engagement to, and exposure of, the best innovation in the UK.
