Dr Glen Platt, speaking at Power & Electricity World New Zealand

Dr Glen Platt,
Director, Intelligent Grid Programme
CSIRO

Glenn Platt leads a research group within CSIRO’s Division of Energy Technology investigating ways of improving world energy usage. Fundamentally, this group aims to apply the latest state of the art technologies - from disciplines such as computer science, electrical engineering and telecommunications - to improving the intelligence of our energy systems by introducing autonomous, adaptive technologies that can help us manage our energy consumption. Glenn holds a PhD, and electrical engineering degree, both from Newcastle University Australia. Prior to CSIRO, Glenn worked in Denmark as a Research Engineer with Nokia Mobile Phones, working on the standardisation and application of cutting-edge mobile communications technology. Before his time in Denmark, Glenn was employed in a project engineering capacity for various Australian engineering consultancies, working on industrial automation and control projects.
