Explore how hybrid AC/DC microgrids can transform buildings into smarter, more resilient energy systems.
In this collaborative paper, Ahmad Makkieh, EU Direct Current Project Manager at Schneider Electric, and Adam Selvey, Head of Engineering Design and Innovation for the Built Environment at Jacobs, share expert insights into the urgent shift toward net zero carbon power.
Learn how this transition helps overcome the limitations of outdated electrical infrastructure and supports the design of future-ready buildings that balance energy generation, demand, and storage.
What you’ll learn:
- Eliminate inefficiencies caused by outdated AC infrastructure
- Cut energy loss by up to 20% with DC-ready technologies
- Slash project timelines and infrastructure costs
- Reduce dependence on a slow-moving grid
- Make buildings active contributors to energy stability
The speakers are Ahmad Makkieh, EU Direct Current Project Manager, Schneider Electric and Adam Selvey, Head of Engineering Design and Innovation, Built Environment, Jacobs.
