Energy, Weather and Climate Forum: Challenges and Opportunities
LOCATION
Virtual - Hosted on Zoom
Weather and climate information is increasingly being used in the energy sector. There are many great examples of it being used to effectively predict and manage energy supply and demand. However, there are still gaps in our knowledge of this intersection, and ways of improving how weather and climate data can be effectively integrated into energy sector decision making. There is also the challenge that different users within the energy sector operate on different temporal and spatial scales.
To address these gaps and challenges, the Royal Meteorological Society’s Energy Special Interest Group is hosting an Energy Forum on 12 October 2022, a free virtual half-day event that will give attendees the chance to discuss and propose solutions. There will be three streams on the day: operational and maintenance; trading and strategic planning; long-term planning. We will first hear three short keynote speeches, discussing these timescales and giving background on the physical science behind forecasting on each timescale.
Afterwards, three interactive roundtable discussions will give you the opportunity to discuss the pressing issues at each timescale, and begin to propose solutions or areas where further research is required. Discussions will be in small groups as we want to hear the voice of all attendees.
The outputs of this event will help shape the research agenda of weather, climate and energy over the next few years, and inform how the Royal Meteorological Society engages with the energy sector. We hope there will be spin-off collaborations and discussion groups generated by these roundtables.
