At Duke Energy’s Envision Center, you can discover how new energy technologies are transforming today’s power delivery system into tomorrow’s smart grid. The Envision Center is an interactive exhibit to demonstrate integrated smart grid technologies. Designed to model a Hollywood-style studio, it features modernized power equipment, a “smart” home – complete with solar panels and an electric vehicle, an apartment complex with advanced meters, and a power delivery work center with real-time monitoring capabilities.

 

The center promotes energy efficiency and innovation, and gives visitors an inside look at how smart grid technologies can help customers conserve energy, save money and improve the environment.

 

SGRS and Duke is organizing 7 tours of 25 attendees to the Envision Center during the 2 Day Conference. Please take a look at the Agenda for the days/hours of each tour. A shuttle bus will take you from the Westin to the Center and wait for you to bring you back to the Westin after the tour.  Cost and availability on the Registration page.
