Adam Sroka is joined by Gus Chadney and Sheng Chai from the Centre for Net Zero (CNZ), a UK-based not-for-profit impact-driven energy research institute, to discuss how data is driving the future of net zero energy production. Throughout the conversation, they explore:
đ How the CNZ utilises historic smart meter data to fuel synthetic modelling and understand energy usage patterns.
đ The launch of OpenSynth, a project in collaboration with The Linux Foundation (LF Energy) providing researchers with access to a dataset of ten million synthetic load profiles trained on over 300 million smart meter readings.
đ Insights into global smart meter data collection and how it reflects local consumption behaviours.
đ Addressing privacy concerns around smart meter data and how researchers can engage the public on the benefits of data-driven energy solutions.
đ The capitalisation of smart meter data and how it can fuel future energy research projects.
Guest Spotlight
Gus Chadney, Data Lead, and Sheng Chai, Data Scientist, are key contributors at the Centre for Net Zero, where they spearhead research that drives actionable change toward a sustainable, net zero energy system. Through collaborations with global partners like LF Energy, the CNZ continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in data-driven energy research through the formation of the OpenSynth community.
