Thursday 20th & Friday 21st November 2025
Utility Technical Case-Study Conference, Exhibition & Roundtables
This two-day technical case-study programme involves 6 parallel conference tracks showcasing the best of utility grid transformation projects in the areas of:
​
✓ Substations & IEC 61850
✓ SCADA Systems & IEC CIM
✓ Cybersecurity & IEC 62443
✓ Smart Metering
✓ Big Data Management
✓ Asset Management
With increasing renewables, cyber threats, grid automation, and regulatory changes, it is imperative for Distibution and Transmission operators to stay compliant with these evolving standards such as:
​
-
NERC & FERC drive regulatory mandates
-
IEEE & IEC for technical guidance for interoperability
-
Cybersecurity (NERC CIP, IEC 62443) as a growing priority
-
How DERs & grid modernization (IEEE 1547, UL 1741) are reshaping distribution networks
​
The adjoining Exhibition provides a display of the most leading edge products and services available on the market. The day concludes with a series of intimate roundtable discussions enabling peer-to-peer brainstorming and networking.
The Smart Grid Engage Annually hosts industry-driven and technically in-depth specialist forums, by Network Operators to guide utility peers through their experiences in developing their grid infrastructures.
Demand for renewables integration is escalating, and utility technical teams and their senior management must collaborate as effectively as possible to make sound technology choices within often restricted time horizons to enable the correct grid transformation projects, to help meet efficiency objectives.
