April 9: You’re Invited to The Future of Power

April 9th

Mar 18, 2019

Join Spark Power Corp and partners Alectra Inc. and ABB at the inaugural Future of Power event at the Evergreen Brick Works in Toronto, Ontario.

Topics include: clean energy distribution, transactive energy, and the impact of the evolution of the power grid.


Special guest speaker Colonel Chris Hadfield, astronaut and first Canadian commander of the International Space Station, will deliver the event’s closing keynote address.

Traditional utilities and power generators are moving downstream beyond the meter point onto the customer’s site, and new market entrants focused on customer needs are pushing upstream. The result: the meter point is either disappearing or splintering into a thousand pieces throughout the grid, creating both confusion and complexity but also opportunity.

The Future of Power — fueled by Spark Power — is not about replacing the grid but rather finding alternatives to work with the existing grid to better meet customers’ needs.

Registration is now open. Find out more.
