LF Energy Spring Summit

Stan Janssen is the lead developer of an open source implementation of the OpenADR protocol, called OpenLEADR. He will speak about the "first 100 days" of open sourcing a product, what it means for protocol implementations to be open sourced, and the specific benefits of collaborating the LF Energy and the broader development community. During the presentation, Stan will touch on technical considerations for your open source product, the legal considerations, but most importantly, what collaboration with the broader community can bring to your organization. During the first 100 days, the response to OpenLEADR has been positive and constructive, with contributions from people all over the world, that come together to improve the product and to collectively share ideas and use cases.

Tobias Augspurger and the protontypes community have launched a unique effort to track all active and sustainable open source projects worldwide. Thus, decision-makers, engineers and scientists can get an overview of which open and environmentally friendly technology projects exist in order to cooperate, strengthen transparent decision making and spread innovations in areas like renewable energies worldwide. In addition, it will also highlight areas where innovation is lacking and projects need further support. We want to share the experiences we made during the creation of OpenSustain.tech with the open-source community to identify future tasks, opportunities and risks: * Standing on the Shoulder of Giants * The discovery problem of Open Source Projects * The genesis of OpenSustain.tech * Hidden gems and new champions * How make OpenSustain.tech a self-sustainable community project.

Energinet DK and Microsoft CSE began working together in September 2020 to build a minimum viable project, the Green Energy Hub. This project is to be published as an open source project but the project began laying the foundation of collaborative practices, governance with a view to the future and wider use through outbound sharing.
