Scaling Technology Amid Regulatory and Market Challenges: A Collaborative Approach for Europe's Power Utilities

The discussion centers on scaling existing technology amidst challenges like regulatory frameworks and market dynamics. Recent events in the Iberian Peninsula underscore the ongoing transition, emphasizing the need for flexibility to benefit every customer. This requires collaboration among stakeholders to ensure consumer benefits while maintaining business profitability. The conversation aims to align incentives across ecosystems, from grid operators to drivers. Gabrielle from Eurelectric is invited to share insights from a recent study conducted with EY, representing Europe's power utilities' perspectives on these issues.

Electric vehicles are more than clean transport. They are key to the distributed energy ecosystem. Unlocking their potential requires smart (V1X) and bidirectional (V2X) charging, both essential for seamless grid integration and maximizing the value of electric vehicles as flexible energy assets.Such solutions help EV owners cut costs and generate revenue while enabling grid operators to manage congestion, enhance stability, and support a cleaner energy transition.This session will explore business models for cost-effective V1X and V2X integration, focusing on grid-EV interaction and demand-side management in residential and commercial settings.

Off-grid solar systems are often the least expensive option for rural electrification. Solar home systems can power individual households, while mini-grids can supply entire villages. Each comes with its own advantages, disadvantages, and challenges. The aim of this session is to explore challenges as well as success stories. It takes well-functioning components such as battery systems, charge management and inverters to make projects successful. Proper system sizing, maintenance and repair management, as well as a robust financial concept are also necessary. If one of these elements is missing, the electrification will not be sustainable. This session will focus on the aspects mentioned above. The speakers will present successful and unsuccessful approaches and discuss what can be learned from them.
