When:<\/strong> Wednesday 22 April, 08:00-09:00<\/h4>\r\n

Where:<\/strong> N115+N116, Level 1 \u2013 Conference Area<\/h4>\r\n

Open to:<\/strong> All registered participants<\/a>. With additional registration<\/a> required.<\/h4>\r\n

Europe\u2019s power system is changing fast. Renewable growth, electrification, and new loads like AI data centers and electric mobility are increasing variability and stressing a grid built for stable conditions.<\/p>\r\n

This breakfast session will include the launch of a joint Hitachi Energy-Wind Europe report and discussion, exploring how digitalization, more power electronics, and new demand patterns disrupt traditional security assumptions.<\/p> \r\n

These shifts require new planning, operations, and technologies. Participants will deliberate on why solving these issues is essential for a secure, sustainable, and equitable electricity system. They will also highlight practical steps to shape a smarter and more flexible grid that can manage increasing supply and demand complexities in a dynamic manner.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
