The UK's smart grid strategy and latest thinking on the prospects for a European Supergrid

June 2012


Starting from: £99 + VAT
Format: DOWNLOADABLE PDF


As the Government continued to develop its policy on smart grids, and following the publication of the Smart Grid Forum's How to deliver smarter grids in GB, this seminar examined the opportunities and challenges associated with the future of the UK's electricity network, whilst focusing on the next steps in the development and implementation of a smart grid strategy.
Delegates assessed the financial, practical and technical requirements for a smart grid - considering in part the impact of the Electricity Market Reform White Paper - as the Government moved to ensure that UK electricity networks can meet the long-term challenges of tackling climate change and securing clean and affordable energy.
Topics for discussion also included the latest thinking on the prospects for a European Supergrid and the implications and further opportunities this may present for UK electricity.
