Evinox provided a keynote speech, took part in a panel discussion and exhibited at the HIL (Housing Industry Leaders) Housing Scotland Conference 2024.
Finian Parrick, Business Development Director for Evinox and inventor of the Minibems technology (Internet of Things technology providing realtime monitoring and control of heating systems), delivered a keynote speech discussing “Retrofit & Heat Networks”.
The talk, written by Finian, was wide-ranging and covered heat network problems and solutions; preparing systems to be renewables ready; regulation compliance; home and energy centre refurbishment and re-fitting.
Finian also took part in a panel discussion with Gillian Campbell from Existing Homes of Scotland; Neal Rafferty of Scottish Government; and Ofgem’s Shona Fisher. Topics covered included clean energy for housing; Scottish policy and regulations concerning heat networks and efficiency; long-term financing and funding of systems. The panel was hosted by Floyd March, Editor, Peloton Events.
By exhibiting at the event, Evinox was able to promote its integrated hardware, technology and services solutions for housing associations, local and city councils that manage communal and district heat networks.
The company said: “We were able to address the opportunities and challenges presented from operating heat networks efficiently, and it was encouraging to see demand for Evinox products and services.”
“If you were there, then hopefully you passed by our stand and picked up some of our newly branded merchandise which proved to be a big hit!”
The Housing Scotland Conference and Exhibition on 8 October, at the Radisson Blu in Glasgow, was the second installation of the event which brings together the Scottish Government, local authorities, housing associations, wider stakeholder community and supply chain to discuss their vision for the future and how the sector will support the needs of its citizens.
