DISCERN provides the community of European DSOs with tools, knowledge and access to shared experiences in order to answer evolving practical questions such as: How much intelligence do distribution networks need to ensure the security of supply? What is the best approach for determining the most cost-effective solution for implementing this level of intelligence in the network? How should the ICT-infrastructure be designed to best serve the requirements of a DSO? In this upcoming final DISCERN conference, the consortium members will present their findings and discuss these issues, sharing their recommendations with DSOs, technology providers, policy makers and standardization bodies. We look forward to meeting you in this final event to be held on: 2nd June 2016 10:00 to 16:30 including networking lunch Sheraton Frankfurt Airport Hotel & Conference Center Airport, Terminal 1 | Hugo-Eckener-Ring 15 60549 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Registration is now open.

The Customer Domain is mainly divided into residential, commercial and industrial customers which support automation functions such as remote reading of meters and controlling of load obtained by communication between smart devices. Demand Response (DR) is one of the typical methods for optimizing load characteristics in power systems. Utilities offer DR schemes to generate incentives toward consumers’ power consumption behavior for load optimization. In tariff planning, power consumption variation is an important issue which is difficult to be analyzed quantifiably. This webinar presents a boundary model for analysing consumers’ power consumption behaviors, with a particular focus on residential home appliances. Candidate tariffs are analyzed in this model for their load variation potentials. Practical applications of the model on pricing and smart meter deployment will be considered. Future direction for the Customer Domain will be discussed, and case studies based on industrial consumer, and a numerical case study on practical cement industry will be shared. This webinar is hosted by IEEE, nonprofit entity hat brings objective coordination among the huge cast of public and private organizations that will contribute to the smart grid’s development, and presented by Loi Lei Lai, Professor, Guangdong University of Technology, Guangzhou China.

In order to survive, they are expected to change their business models and collaborate with each other. Joint TSOs, DSOs activities play a key role here and we are always looking to develop new techniques and strategies to ensure a smooth co-operation. Decentralization of the electricity sector, with production sources closer to the consumption place and digitalization of energy creates challenges for DSOs in managing new generation. The ideal way to accommodate these uncertainties within transmission network operation are met with the need for Control Systems, consisting of HVDC corridors, and the use of sophisticated software. Smart techniques and strategies would limit flaws and risks within the transmission network, smart methods to ensure stability of the system and strengthened coordination between power utilities may help to conquer future challenges and obstacles within Operation. Key Topics: Ensuring reliability for Network Operation and Maintenance Deciding the best solutions to manage cost pressure Co-ordinating interconnections between power utilities Overseeing the future of the „Control System“ Reacting to outages in the system Making better predictions in the future with efficient management of exposure Improving costs to actual generation with new technologies Examining the ways to handle data transfer between power utilities For Booking contact us directly at: andrea.solomon@inconnect.net Follow us on twitter: @INconnectgrp Follow us on LinkedIn: INconnect Group For more information about events please visit: www.inconnect.net 20160915T090000 20160916T170000 +50.075538;+14.4378 Prague, Czech Republic 0 Transmission Network Management and Control free ai1ec-869@nobelgrid.eu 20170603T052158Z http://amps2016.ieee-ims.org/ IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON APPLIED MEASUREMENTS FOR POWER SYSTEMS AMPS deals with all the aspects related to measurement applications in current power systems and in future Smart Grids.

Two mega-trends are rapidly converging to reshape the European energy system: decarbonisation and digitalisation. Based on strong public policies, decarbonisation is already reshuffling the European energy mix, while industry-driven technological innovation is progressively opening-up new and potentially disruptive opportunities for evolving energy systems. These trends will transform the European energy system from a static and centralised model into a dynamic and decentralised one. In this framework, the governance of the European energy system will also need to change. With this event, Bruegel will launch a new paper-authored by Simone Tagliapietra and Georg Zachmann- on the issue. 20161027T123000 20161027T143000 +50.84794;+4.370778 Rue de la Charité 33, 1210 Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, Belgium 0 Towards a Zero-Carbon and Digital Energy System: Which Policy Challenges for Europe? free ai1ec-921@nobelgrid.eu 20170603T052158Z http://www.european-utility-week.com/ The European Utility Week 2016 (EUW) is taking place 15-17 November in Barcelona.
