Dr. Balraman Kannan, IEEE- PES Banglore Section, Vice- Chair delivered the keynote address.The session started with introducing the changes happening in the energy sector, especially with smart techniques. On the History of sciences, the speaker explained Kondratieff cycles, where technology innovations led to economic growth and a period of recession before next great innovation. In the history there were cycles propelled by Steam engines, railways, electricity, chemistry and IC engines, petrol, plastic and electric motor, IT, biotech and new materials. The first, second and third industrial revolution periods are seen during the periods 1760-1850, 1890-1944, 1990-2040. The speaker further added that technology has transformed the way the things are perceived every time in the history. Today’s industrial revolution is leading to distributed capitalism than monolithic structure. Energy is becoming more democratised as all the consumers are acting both as producer and consumer or act as a ‘prosumer’. The main pillars in democratization of energy are renewable energy, energy buildings, hydrogen storage, intelligent grid, fuel cell vehicles.New energy systems with new communication techniques offer great economic transformation –which is the key in third industrial revolution. Future grid is more secure with better communication and total control. The grid becoming digital with lot of devices and communication protocols.Continentalization of energy has become a reality today. The entire European grid is integrated to form a single grid, where country borders are fading away. This enable the countries to utilize the excess energy during the peak demand seasons from other countries where the energy requirement is less during the season due to the difference in weather conditions. The details of the proposed Asian super grid was also given by the speaker.
He also gave insights to digitization of manufacturing, Class room makeover, virtual reality etc.
The session concluded with a question answer session, where Dr. Balaraman Kannan answered the questions from the audience.
