International Workshop: Cross-Border T&D Delivery: Overcoming Supply Chains, Permitting, and Market Friction

* Pre-Registration Required *

As electrification, data center growth, and rapid DER adoption strain global transmission and distribution networks, utilities face increasing pressure to expand infrastructure while managing capital costs and rate payer affordability. These challenges aren’t specific to a given region or utility, which is why delivering next-generation grid capacity requires balancing physical high-voltage construction with advanced digital modeling and flexible demand orchestration.

Unlocking this next phase of grid transformation requires exploring which international strategies can be immediately adapted and enabled to relieve capacity pressure, which regulatory or market barriers limit cross-border replication, and how forward-thinking utilities balance extracting hidden capacity from existing assets with committing capital to multi-year physical expansions. These shared global challenges can utilize cross-border frameworks versus localized solutions to define what it means to drive affordability and reliability across the entire energy sector.

This interactive workshop brings together international utility leaders, system operators, EPC firms, and technology innovators to share field-tested frameworks for modern T&D project execution and network planning. Through real-world case studies, participants will examine how utilities across North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region are leveraging digital grid models to unlock hidden capacity, accelerate interconnections, and de-risk major capital programs.
