The GridWise Architecture Council is pleased to partner with RE+ for our 8th Symposium, where we will discuss the challenges and opportunities associated with the ongoing Grid Transformation. Under the US Department of Energy’s sponsorship, GWAC is celebrating 20 years of thought leadership supporting the dynamic transformation of the power grid with a focus on the 3 Ds: Decarbonization, Decentralization, and Democratization.

This year’s two-day symposium will bring together industry leaders to discuss the benefits and challenges of architecting, managing and operating electric power systems with the widespread adoption of distributed energy resources. The symposium will engage attendees to discuss new guidance and recommended practices for the next generation of stakeholders in the most complicated and expensive system ever built: the electric power grid.

Featuring keynotes, panels, and interactive workshops, the symposium builds on GWAC’s leadership in transactive energy systems, grid interoperability, and grid architecture. Join us for these informative and interactive discussions for all grid, grid edge, and DER stakeholders.
