IEA ISGAN Annex 7: Smart Grid Transitions (Working period 2020-2023)

ISGAN Annex / Working Group 7 explored how Smart Grids can support the energy transition. Focus areas included transition processes, governance, market development, and decentralized actors like prosumers. Results were shared through policy briefs, publications, and workshops. An international Community of Practice connects policymakers from ministries, regulatory agencies, and funding bodies and fosters smarter energy systems.

IEA International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN) Annex 6 on Power T&D Systems. Working period 2015 - 2016.

The International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN) aims in enhancing the knowledge about Smart Grid Technologies and accelerating the development and the international deployment. The main objective of the Austrian contribution in IEA ISGAN Annex 6 is to build up knowledge and long term concepts for the development of an intelligent and integrated electricity system, with the focus on the interaction of distribution and transmission networks, including the lead of the related subtask within the Annex.

IEA ISGAN Working Group 6: Transmission and Distribution Network Systems (Working period 2025-2026)

IEA ISGAN Working Group 6 focuses on Power Transmission and Distribution Systems (T&D), addressing challenges in developing future smart grids. It promotes technology deployment and strategic adoption to enhance the safe and secure supply of electricity. This supports electrification expansion, renewable integration, distributed generation, and customer engagement. During 2025-2026, the project will explore grid-forming inverters and their impact on the power grid and stakeholder interactions.

IEA ISGAN Working Group 6 Transmission and Distribution Network Systems (working period 2023-2024)

IEA ISGAN Working Group 6 addresses the challenges in the overall system of transmission and distribution networks for electricity. The results will improve the understanding of the impact of smart grid technologies on the overall system performance, transmission capacities and operational management of public electricity supply systems. In the project years 2022-2023, international pilot projects on flexibility use and the necessary interaction of transmission and distribution grid operators will be summarised and conclusions drawn.
