2nd Annual SAF Conference
The biggest event of the year dedicated to flexibility aggregation

Organized by the Sdružení agregátorů a poskytovatelů flexibility (SAF), part of the AKU-BAT Association, this conference is a key event for anyone interested in the future of energy in the Czech Republic. Its goal is to support the development of electricity aggregation and the use of flexibility in the Czech market—both essential for a stable and efficient energy system.

This unique event offers an opportunity to meet leading experts and industry leaders, share the latest insights and innovations, and discuss the direction Czech energy is heading. The conference will be divided into four thematic blocks, providing in-depth perspectives on decentralized energy, the role of flexibility, and practical aspects of becoming a flexibility provider.

Come get inspired, build new connections, and take part in the discussion shaping the future of energy in the Czech Republic.
We look forward to seeing you on October 7, 2025, in Prague, at the Stages Hotel.
