LONDON, Aug. 19, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Navigant Research, global DER capacity is expected to grow to 528.4 GW by 2026, representing 9% of annual global power supply and a 399% increase from 2017. The pace of DER proliferation is therefore rapidly ramping up, and the ensuing curtailment of conventional, centralized generation is well under way.
Whether you are a TSO, a DSO, an energy supplier or a regulator, together you are tasked with addressing the challenges of this transition – reliability of supply, system balance, system inertia and congestion management, to name a few. Only through improving the flexibility of the grid can this be achieved in an affordable and realistic way, and the energy market must fundamentally change to support the affordable and reliable management of vast numbers of distributed generation assets and flexible loads.
It is for this reason that grid strategists, market developers, system operation experts, R&D managers and a host of other key implementation leaders will be joining us in London for the inaugural Smart Grid Flexibility 2019 conference, exhibition and networking forum. Taking place across three days in London, from 1-3 October, and featuring implementation case-studies from some of Europe's leading TSOs and DSOs, this event will provide a crucial forum for developing a clear path forward for the energy system in the face of mass DER uptake.
