RE+ Tech

 

RE+ Tech  is the event for the technical and scientific communities to present and share innovative research in the solar, storage, and smart energy industries at North America's largest clean energy event (formerly called SPI, ESI, and Smart Energy Week). This event-within-an-event showcases scientific content from industry leaders and provides a hub for science and tech trailblazers to come together, share research, and innovate tomorrow's clean energy solutions.

Accelerating decarbonization goals will take collaboration across all clean energy sectors. RE+ Tech sessions will highlight innovation across sectors, focusing on technical advancements in the pre-commercialization to adoption phase that will push us towards the ultimate goal of net zero.

What to Expect

As part of the larger RE+ 2023 show, RE+ Tech will have its own networking, identity, and content. This show within a show will include the following components:

  • RE+ Tech dedicated opening session
  • RE+ Tech dedicated reception and networking opportunities
  • Two tracks of education
  • Expo Hall: Join other Tech colleagues in-person as you explore new industry innovation on the show floor and make connections with start-up companies across clean energy industry sectors.
  • Industry Education: Your curated education pathway includes full conference education sessions on topics such as power surety, resilience, cybersecurity and physical security, electrification, transmission and distribution, integration of DC into AC, carbon capture, EV charging infrastructure/V2G, DG and community energy renewable, emerging renewable generation technologies, including the ecosystem through which those technologies become commercially viable/deployable, as well as show floor sessions from leading companies, poster presentations, and more.

Microgrid Demonstration at the Grid Edge Theater

This year’s live microgrid demonstration will feature a fully operating “hybrid” bi-directional residential microgrid, complete with appliances, HVAC, lighting, EV charging and various plug load distributions including line AC and DC, USB-C, PoE and FMP. Power resources for the microgrid will be a combination of solar, battery and utility energy. The microgrid will power both AC and DC devices and appliances in a simulated residential setting. It will also be interconnected in a simulated multi-tiered grid-of-grids network of other microgrids and the macrogrid.

The demonstration is a multi-vendor system engineered by Direct Energy Partners and includes electrical devices from Emera Technologies Block Energy, CE+T America, LG Appliances and Solar Panels, Trane HVAC, Cisco Systems PoE & FMP, Enteligent EV Charging, PomCube iCan Energy Storage, Nextek Power Systems, ATX LED, Eco-Fasten Solar Mounting, Alencon Optimizers, and many more.  Install of the on-site microgrid will be overseen by Rectify Solar.
