On November 23rd during the Mission Innovation Challange 1 (MI IC1) smart grids public workshop in Rome the three IC1 co-leads from China, India and Italy signed a letter of Intent with ISGAN. This LoI clearly state the willingness of MI IC1 and ISGAN to foster effective collaboration and to further explore opportunities for joint activities on strategic topics of mutual interest in the field of Smart Grids as storage integration and flexibility options.
After the signature from the ISGAN Chair Karin Widegren the LoI was officially signed by Yibo Wang from CAS, NP Padhy from IIT Roorkee and Luciano Martini from RSE in presence of Alicia Mignone in her capacity of Chair of IEA CERT and Josef Ayoub Canadian ExCo member and ISGAN-MI IC1 liaison person.
This LoI paves the way for an effective MI IC1 – ISGAN collaboration and towards the organization of the “1st CEM-MI Joint Workshop on Cooperation to accelerate smart grid market uptake” to be held on May 2019 in Vancouver, Canada.
