Hacking the Energy System - Green Shift Launch

Based in Manchester, but operating across the North West, Carbon Co-op is acommunity energy organisation, established to enable people and communities to make the big reductions in domestic energy bills and carbon emissions necessary to tackle the causes of climate change. We are committed to creating aJust Transitionand tacklingEnergy Justiceissues.

Carbon Co-op

Join Carbon Co-op and the University of Manchester to celebrate the launch of our latest project Green Shift, part of the EU-wide Nobel Grid programme. Through Green Shift, Carbon Co-op will pilot new technologies with our members and communities across Greater Manchester to see how much we can work together to shift our energy uses, balance out demand across the day and support the development of low carbon grid. We’ll be looking at smart meters, batteries, electric cars and community energy so come along to be part of the celebration and hear about ways to get involved.
Funded via the EU Commission’s Horizon 2020 programme, Nobel Grid aims to have a ‘disruptive’ effect, challenging existing business models and work practices amongst energy suppliers, smart meter suppliers, grid actors and energy co-operatives. To toast this occasion we'll be giving a short talk on the project as part of the closing session of our one day conference 'Hacking the Energy System' from 17:15 - 17:45 before heading on to Bulls Head, near Piccadilly for drinks and chips.
