In this clip, Centre for Net Zero COO Gareth Jones discusses the OpenSynth project, which aims to democratize access to synthetic energy consumption data while addressing privacy concerns through synthetic data generation using a tool called Faraday.

The project, part of Octopus Energy Group, is currently in its community-building phase. It focuses on developing building technical infrastructure, including a repository of synthetic datasets, an algorithm code repository, and benchmarking tools to measure algorithm suitability for different use cases. The project’s future involves creating a community of users and creators of synthetic data.
