Upgrading Europe’s distribution grids to be fit for purpose
Join Eurelectric in shaping Europe’s next-generation distribution grids to deliver its clean-energy transition
Now is the time to ensure our grids are built for speed and resilience, ensuring Europe’s distribution networks fit for a decarbonised future.
Europe must invest up to €67 billion per year until 2050 to upscale its distribution grids to deliver the green transition. However, strategic grid investments combined with GETs — spanning planning, operations, and maintenance — can reduce overall system costs by 18%, saving around €13 billion annually. The Eurelectric Grids for Speed Business Hub brings together leading players across the European grids value chain to accelerate this transformation. Its mission is to:
- Unite Eurelectric members to share best practices, investment strategies, and case studies
- Create high-value networking opportunities to foster collaboration
- Deliver a showcase of actionable solutions that boost grid capacity, flexibility, and speed of deployment
