Rightsizing the grid to accelerate decarbonisation

In this episode of the Energy Transitions podcast, Pamela Largue speaks to Kristian Ruby, Secretary General, Eurelectric and Serge Colle, Global Energy & Resources Industry Market Leader, EY, about what is needed to overcome grid bottlenecks while maximising reliability.

This episode will answer questions about:

• The importance of derisking investment through updated policy frameworks
• Incentives and derisking mechanisms to rightsize grids for 20 years from now
• How TSOs and DSO need to prepare for future challenges
• Accessing funding for grid expansion without creating a huge bill for the customer
• The importance of closing the loop between electrification needs,  grid plans and climate targets
• Understanding the need to build a foundation of knowledge to guide policymakers in future decision making

Both Kristian Ruby and Serge Colle will be discussing the future of grids at the Eurelectric Power Summit, taking place in Lagonissi, Greece, 22 – 23 May 2024. The summit will address in detail the challenges and opportunities we face to keep the lights on.
