On Wednesday 3 September we held the
NILM 2014 @ London meet up at Imperial College London. The aim of the meet up was to provide a local forum for European energy disaggregation researchers to get to know each other and discuss their work. The agenda included introductions of the attendees, an overview of NILM events to date, a presentation of energy disaggregation at
DNO level, an overview of the
NILMTK project, as well as many discussion around data collection and evaluation. The meet up was attended by representatives from
AlertMe,
British Gas,
Green Running,
Greeniant,
Navetas,
ONZO and
Wattgo, as well as academics from Imperial College London, University of Klagenfurt and University of Southampton. Slides from the presentations are now online via the
meet up website, while photos from the day are available via Jack Kelly's
flickr album.
It became clear from the meet up that there's real enthusiasm for a regular NILM event hosted in Europe. Currently, we're planning to host the next event in London around February-March 2015, so please get in touch if you'd like to attend.
Special thanks to
Peter Davies of
Green Running for sponsoring the event and
Jack Kelly of
Imperial College London for the local organisation.
