The Symposium will also include specific sessions to encompass the biennial Conference on Integration of Distributed Energy Resources (CIDER)conducted by Australian Panel C6 and the South East Asia Protection Automation Conference (SEAPAC) conducted by Australian Panel B5.

Symposium Theme

The session will be on the theme of The End to End Electricity System: transition, development and integration. This will be divided into three topic streams:

  1. Learning from experiences. What can we draw from past experience to develop the power system?
  2. Developing practices, functionalities and applications. What are the current developments and their application to the future power system?
  3. Towards a sustainable power system. What are the future needs and requirements of the power system?

The symposium focuses on the integrated electricity system and the transformation into the electricity system of the future. It will identify what can be learned from the experience with current developments in technology, equipment, controls as well as electricity system architecture,

operational practices and planning criteria. The topics then cover the changes that are necessary to meet community expectations and policy requirements.

The conference embraces many of the CIGRE domains of work as shown by including planning, operations, markets and economics as well as the technical aspects of the network and then through to the integration of distributed energy resources.

It will examine new ideas, approaches, technologies and operations.
