T&D EUROPE ENERGY CONFERENCE 29 November 2016

Reinventing Electricity: Reaching Energy Union Goals through Grid Digitisation and Interconnection

• During this event, top energy business executives, regulators, and policy-makers will share their views on interconnection and digitisation, two essential elements to provide the whole electricity grid from generation over transmission to distribution with the flexibility needed. We will tackle essential questions where technology and policy meet, including:

• How to deal with the need of long-term infrastructure development in an uncertain technological environment?

• How to ensure developing the right infrastructure for consumers needs and use it as efficiently as possible?

• Can Europe be the “Living Lab” for the energy transformation?

T&D EUROPE ENERGY CONFERENCE 29 November 2016

Reinventing Electricity: Reaching Energy Union Goals through Grid Digitisation and Interconnection

1st panel

• A truly European network infrastructure – enabling the reinvention of electricity

In its Communication on “Achieving the 10 % electricity interconnection” the Commission highlighted that the completion of the internal electricity market requires more than 10 % interconnection capacity, and efforts by the EU and Member States must be guided by the need to reach at least a 15% interconnection capacity by 2030. How can this level of connection can be implemented? Where are the hot points?

T&D EUROPE ENERGY CONFERENCE 29 November 2016

Reinventing Electricity: Reaching Energy Union Goals through Grid Digitisation and Interconnection

2nd panel

• Reinventing the electricity grid means Digitisation

Digital technologies are the most potent tool for driving value and efficiency in the energy system. Smart Grid technology has indeed the potential to unlock a fully green energy supply for Europe. To this end, an essential requirement is to digitise the grid. But several challenges arise from this process: maintaining the security of the electrical infrastructure, make the best use of energy data while guaranteeing privacy, engaging consumers while preserving their lifestyle…
