European energy projects and grid development activities

Numerous demonstration and deployment projects are underway in the European Union, which are essential for operating the interconnected power system of ENTSO-E in a safe and reliable manner. Many have a significant impact on the electrical energy infrastructure on a national or international level, enhance the European energy market and aim at meeting the EU's energy policy objectives. Some focus on facilitating the integration of an increasing share of energy from renewable energy sources, while others try to find best ways to further interconnect the bulk power systems and efficiently exploit the existing electrical energy infrastructure.
