E.DSO 3rd FutureGrid Innovation Summit

E.DSO is back with its FutureGrid Innovation Summit in Brussels at Centre for Fine Arts on 11 February 2027!

The third edition of the Summit will bring together Europe’s electricity distribution leaders, policymakers, innovators, researchers and industry partners to shape the next phase of Europe’s energy transition.

As electrification accelerates across transport, industry and heating, Europe’s distribution grids are becoming the foundation of a secure, affordable and resilient energy system. DSOs are no longer only infrastructure operators: they are enablers of system-wide innovation, flexibility and digital transformation.

The 2027 edition will focus on three main pillars: artificial intelligence, resilience, and flexibility, exploring how innovation can move from pilot phase into broad deployment and how Europe can accelerate investment, strengthen resilience, and scale practical solutions for the energy transition.

The call for applications for the 4th Digital & Innovation Award for startups, to be presented during the Summit, is available here. For participation opportunities for innovation projects, see the full call for applications.

Join us in Brussels and be part of the conversation on the future of Europe’s distribution grids.

The event is organised with the sponsorship of the Electric Power Research Institute Europe (EPRI Europe), Reinhausen and in partnership with EnergyVille and smartEn.
