In the framework of the Lighthouse Project on Smart Distribution Grids, ISGAN is launching an innovative workshop series in May to explore grid development dynamics in different parts of the world.
In light of the recent COP28 Pledge propelling the international community towards tripling renewables and significantly bolstering energy efficiency, the imperative for implementing innovative grid solutions has never been more pressing. Therefore, the Lighthouse Project aims to foster collaboration and innovation in the global effort to reshape distribution grids for a sustainable future.
As one method of achieving this, The Lighthouse team has set up the new workshops series
serving as a platform for experts across the globe to come together and address these challenges in a new and dynamic way. In order to navigate through shared challenges unique nuances of different global regions will be addressed.
Share insights on policy making and grid operation
The experts involved will explore the preconditions, barriers and opportunities of key actors, including national and local energy policy makers as well as distribution grid operators and utilities, across different geographies, who together share the responsibility for shaping the distribution grids of the future. Questions include, for example:
• What are the fundamental prerequisites for grid development in your country?
• How do uncertainties impact the capacity of grid actors in your country to plan and implement distribution grids effectively?
• How can stakeholders your country work together efficiently to accelerate distribution grid transformation?
