SEDC, Smart Energy Demand Coalition
The SEDC is dedicated to making the demand side a smart, interactive part of the energy value chain in order to ensure the long-term goals of the Smart Grid.
The SEDC is an industry group, which represents the requirements of programs involving smart energy demand in order to further the development of the Smart Grid and ensure improved end-consumer benefits.
The SEDC Vision is to promote the active participation by the demand side in European electricity markets – ensure consumer benefits, increase security of supply and reduce carbon emissions.
To a certain extent the realization of the “smart” grid is dependent on the ability of utilities to make energy demand “smart”, using such tools as feedback, pricing and automation. Yet despite their central position within a new Smart Grid future – European demand centered programs are lagging well behind other global markets. If this trend continues it could potentially slow the deployment of Smart Grid technology and threaten long-term goals.
The SEDC aims to become an industry group, which can represent the requirements of programs involving smart energy demand, related to making demand a smart, interactive part of the energy value chain – thus furthering the development of the Smart Grid.
SEDC members are: BPL Global, Capgemini Consulting, Cinterion, Delta, Digi, E.ON, EDF Group, Electricity North West, Elektro Ljubljana, eMeter, Enel, EnerNOC, Entelios, Honeywell, Johnson Controls, Joule Assets, Kisters, Landis+Gyr, Noerr, Orange, Pöyry Management Consulting, Prolan, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Silver Spring Networks, Smart Power Grids Consortium, Sustainability First, The Climate Group, The Demand Response and Smart Grid Coalition (DRSG), The Energy Technological Institute (ITE), The European Demand Response Center, The European Smart Metering Industry Group (ESMIG), The Peak Load Management Alliance (PLMA), United Technologies Research Center (UTRC), VaasaETT, Vodafone Machine to Machine, Wroclaw University of Technology, ZigBee.
