I’m interested in understanding how smart grid technology is expected to shape the future of the UK energy system, particularly as the country moves towards net zero targets.
I would like to learn more about:
- How smart grids improve energy efficiency and grid reliability
- Their role in integrating renewable energy sources such as wind and solar
- The impact of smart meters, automation, and real-time data on energy management
- Key challenges in implementing smart grid infrastructure across the UK
- The role engineers (especially mechanical/electrical) play in this transition
I come from an engineering background and am keen to understand both the technical and practical aspects of smart grid development in the UK.
I would really appreciate insights from professionals or anyone working on related projects.
