ISGAN Webinar - Long-Term Planning & Implementation of Smart Distribution Grids

ISGAN Virtual Learning and the ISGAN Lighthouse Project on Smart Distribution Grids invite you to a webinar where we will introduce a new framework for understanding the dynamics of long-term planning and implementation of smart distribution grids. This framework offers insights to help navigate the landscape of increasing complexity and uncertainty associated with distribution grid modernization globally.

We will present the framework, which lays out five essential phases of long-term planning and three enabling framework conditions, offering a structured understanding of how different actor groups are involved in these processes. The webinar will also highlight key messages from the ISGAN Policy Brief on this theme, which was recently launched in conjunction with the Clean Energy Ministerial meeting (CEM15) in Brazil.
