Smart meter data can expose waste that other tools do not even look for. George Catto will explain where traditional tools fail and show that AMR data can fill this gap by exploiting pattern recognition of waste characteristics found in the data.
Trials and Tribulations of Getting into Energy ManagementEMEX
As someone who has come out of doing their Masters in 2014 with very little experience this lecture will talk about the challenges faced on getting to where I wanted to be in energy management at the age of 25 and how I got there. It will involve the problems I faced initially getting employed, the several jobs loosely affiliated with what I wanted to do, and the unpaid internship undertaken during my Masters which helped me get to where I am happy. It will also be used to prove you don’t have to come from an Oxbridge university, and can come from anywhere to reach ambitious goals.
Behaviour Change – it’s not all about turning off the lightsEMEX
In principle most people think saving energy is a good idea. But things get in the way – budgets, timelines and knowledge to name a few. UCL’s sustainability team have used a £1.2 billion estate investment programme to embed energy saving in organisational processes, approvals and contracts, making energy efficiency a core requirement and not a ‘nice to have’. Joanna will explain how she has used rigorous governance and effective relationship building to shift attitudes across the institution, with engineers, maintenance staff, lab managers and architects all considering energy in their day to day activities and suggesting new initiatives to reduce consumption.
Successful (and replicable!) implementation of effective energy managementEMEX
Alexandra Hammond will share first-hand experience of implementing one of the largest and most complex energy performance contracts in the public sector and share the key learnings from the project that can be replicated across industry and the public sector.
Simon will discuss the use of demand based ventilation controls in to save significant energy in commercial kitchens including areas such as applicability, savings potential, other benefits, operational considerations, measurement and verification and incorporating a number of real life case studies.

Effective Cost Management for Amazon EMRDevOps.com
Amazon EMR has become very popular as a cloud native platform for big data. However, customers are finding unexpected costs eating into their cloud budget. Furthermore, lack of visibility to root cause and general inefficiency is costing organizations thousands, if not millions in operating their Amazon EMR environment.
Join AWS and Unravel to discover best practices to effectively manage costs on Amazon EMR. We will discuss:
Advantages of running Spark and Hadoop on Amazon EMR;
Top 5 contributors to cost overruns in Amazon EMR;
Best practices to manage Amazon EMR costs with Unravel.
That's not a metric! Data for cloud-native successGordon Haff
“Without data, you’re just another person with an opinion.” W. Edwards Deming was talking about statistical quality control in manufacturing but he could equally have been referring to managing modern iterative and automated software deployment pipelines and cloud-native infrastructure. Certainly there's a wealth of open source tools to capture and visualize data. However, a data strategy isn’t solely or even mostly about drawing up a long list of technical measurements and instrumenting software to capture everything.
It's crucial to distinguish between metrics that relate software initiatives to positive business outcomes, the alerts needed to respond to problems now, and the data required for root cause analysis or to optimize processes over time. All data is not equal. And most data is not a metric for measuring success.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
