Hi Marek, The GreenTechCenter is not a conference but an area of land (16,000 m2) hat can be used to perform experiments that promote green thinking and investment. It has its own power supply (Smart Grid thinking), heat pumps, solar panels, hydrogen station etc and gets data from local housing estates, local businesses and a local country zone in the area. Labs and office space are being built. The idea is that companies can come and set up their equipment (for example a new windmill) and run experiments on it in a controlled environment. It has proved very popular both here and abroad and most if not all of the office space has already been sold to companies interested in green technology (even before it is build!). I would love to get my hands on the data and feed it into NuPIC! It is due to open officially next month I believe.
