Webinar: DTC Technology Showcase: Buildings as Batteries
February 8, 2023
11:00 – 11:30 am ET
Register
The Buildings as Batteries use case is an innovative approach to digital twins that enables decentralization of power grids at unprecedented speed and scale. This use case provides optimization of the power, thermal, and related aspects for campuses and buildings. Through decentralization, the distribution of energy can be performed at scale. This allows unparalleled energy redistribution speeds and enables the solution to scale up to cities and states.
Originally planned to provide complete power optimization for smart campuses of buildings in New York City, this first use case in our rapidly expanding Technology Showcase reference library has expanded to include the decentralized manufacture of green hydrogen as a fuel source, the power grid enhancements needed to support EV buses, and the energy optimization of refrigeration for the largest food distribution operation in the United States. And all using the same reusable patterns. Destined to expand beyond the borders of the United States, the program epitomizes the recommendation to “Think Big – Start Small – Scale Fast.”
Speaker:
John Reynolds CEO, Agile Fractal Grid
Agile Fractal Grid has been appointed as the Regional Branch Organizer for the Northeast United States to facilitate local Digital Twin Consortium® activities.
The Agile Fractal Grid program emphasizes real world energy programs using engineers and subject matter experts to build real-time applications that improve planning, engineering, construction, and operations of networks of microgrids that adhere to the patterns of nature for massive deployments.
Whether you’re planning and building fractal microgrids or creating operational environments, the AFG Mass Customization Center will assist you in each step of the life cycle. The Mass Customization Network is currently under development but will be initially used for Hydrogen Hub deployments where hydrogen is an integral part of the solution.
Agile Fractal Grid’s CEO, John Reynolds, currently serves as the co-chair of the Natural Resources Working Group in the Digital Twin Consortium®.
He was also the key contributor to “Buildings as Batteries” Technology Showcase.
