Set against a backdrop of increasing climate awareness and sustainability goals that are underpinning power sector development globally, grids must be modernised and adapted to cope with the evolving energy landscape. The increased penetration of variable renewable energy, e-mobility targets and electrification are changing demand, requiring flexibility and in Singapore’s case greater regional interconnectivity. These challenges require innovative technologies, increased digitalisation and a regulatory framework that will enable the grid of the future.
These important topics will be addressed at Enlit Asia’s Future of the Grid, the official grid event for SIEW 2022. Industry professionals will engage in insightful and meaningful discussions surrounding contemporary grid-related matters and the opportunities that exist in the context of the current energy market and its transformation journey.
Programme highlights include:
- Driving interconnectivity
- Energy storage technologies
- Decarbonisation
- Financing grid modernisation and its complexities
- Digitalisation
- Advancing Consumers’ understanding and enabling the rise of the Prosumer
Who Will Attend?
The event will be attended by senior representatives, officials, engineers, thought-leaders and executives across the value chain from:
- Utilities and Regional Grid Operators
- Technology and Service Companies
- Government/Regulatory Bodies
- EPC Companies
- Financiers and Investors
- Infrastructure Developers
- Educational Establishments
