Deloitte - Team 4

• Energy suppliers need to constantly balance energy supply and demand
• Limited control over renewables and demand
• To meet high demand, currently need to burn more fossil fuels!
• This results in high carbon intensity for energy production during peak periods

Proposition

• Inform consumers when carbon intensity is high/low
• Scheduling assistant for manual activities
• Intelligent Devices
• Appliance glow red when carbon intensity is high
• Automatic scheduling of tasks and charging cycles.
• Coordination
• Coordinate demand schedules across homes (especially EV charging)
• Coordinate demand and supply

Hackathon

Data

• Current UK Energy supply by source / fuel (https://www.elexonportal.co.uk/)
