Powered On Live, a two-day event exploring the hot topics within the electrical industry, has been hailed a major success by its organisers.
The inaugural Powered On Live took place on June 15-16, with attendees invited to watch live discussions with some of the industry’s best and brightest. In the end, 21 speakers from across the industry featured across the two-day event.
Topics covered at Powered On Live included a closer look at whether the UK could achieve its net zero ambition, the dangers of arc flash and how to mitigate them, how modern UPSs are enabling virtual power plants, how to deal with the intermittency of renewables, and much more.
Electrical Review has confirmed that each event was recorded and will be available on demand for those who couldn’t make it to the event but still want to hear what was discussed. While an exact date the recordings would be available has not yet been confirmed, it’s expected the discussions will be released imminently.
Following the event’s success, organisers have announced plans for future events from both Electrical Review and its sister publication Data Centre Review. These events are set to expand on the success of the inaugural Powered On Live, which is set to return in 2023.
In addition to Powered On Live, Data Centre Review has confirmed that it will be hosting a two-day live event later this year, dubbed Critical Insight. This event is expected to take place on November 22-23.
Jordan O’Brien, Editor of Electrical Review and Host of the Powered On Podcast, noted, “Powered On Live was a huge undertaking for the Electrical Review team who pulled out all the stops to ensure that we had the very best speakers from across the industry.
“While this was our first time hosting an event of this scale, we were humbled by the reception from all those that took part. I would personally like to thank all our speakers, attendees and sponsors.
“We look forward to bringing you more Powered On in the form of both the podcast and live events in the future, while I’m also excited that our sister publication, Data Centre Review, is getting in on the action with Critical Insight.”
