The role of smart grids: matching energy supply with demand while increasing grid reliability and resiliency

The variable nature of renewable energy sources creates challenges for ensuring a reliable, consistent power supply. Combined with the rising number of prosumers and continuing rising power demand this complexity is expected to increase. To effectively navigate this challenge, grid operators must invest in supporting infrastructure to modernise grids and maximise the impact and financial potential of renewable energy. To achieve this, providers will need to utilise novel technologies, including distributed energy resource management systems, advanced voltage, reactive power controls and network digital twins to provide robust, future-proofed power grids.

Attendee insights:

This session will explore how utilities are integrating next-generation technologies to develop a more resilient grid and maximise the financial value of renewable energy.
