Members of the LF Energy community successfully applied to manage an Energy devroom at FOSDEM 2024, taking place Feb 1-2 in Brussels. The focus of the room is “Accelerating the Transition through Open Source”.

The Energy devroom will take place on Sunday, Feb 2 in Room H.2214 at the Université Libre de Bruxelles and will also be livestreamed. Attendance at either the virtual or in-person events is completely free of charge, and no advance registration is required.

Accepted sessions cover topics including open source best practices, green software development, home energy management, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, energy modeling, forecasting, and more. The full agenda has now been announced, and can be viewed below.

In addition to the sessions in the Energy devroom, Paul Le Guen de Kerneizon of LF Energy member company Savoir-faire Linux will present a session on “LF Energy SEAPATH – svtrace Tools for Latency Analysis in Virtualized Networking Platforms” on Sunday at 16:15 in the Network devroom.

The LF Energy and broader open source energy communities look forward to seeing you in Brussels!
