Smart Grid Collaborative Projects

GridWeek Monday Sessions
Monday Apr/23/2007
13:00 - 14:30

This session is open to all attendees with the purpose of coordinating and building collaborative projects to advance modernization of the transmission and distribution grid. Many collaborative projects currently exist, with some involving only private-sector entities and others also incorporating involvement of the public sector (federal and/or State energy offices).

Each existing collaboration has a specific scope of activities related to research, development, testing, demonstration, and deployment in its technical areas of focus (inclusive of distribution, transmission, and their sub- and cross-cutting technologies). This session will provide for open and active dialog with all attending collaborative project participants and attendees to gain first-hand knowledge about the existing collaborations and their niche areas, as well as to uncover any gap areas from an overall grid systems view that will require expanded or new collaborative projects. Active participation by all attendees is expected.
