Organised by RGI, in collaboration with Red Eléctrica

The conference showcased best practices of RES integration from different regions of the world. We shone a spotlight on many different RES integration practices: from the Mediterranean, across Europe and beyond.

Leading Practices in RES Integration: A Global Perspective

We are convinced that sharing best practices is the best way to foster the integration of renewables in a more innovative and sustainable way. At this conference, we shone a spotlight on RES integration practices from around the world.

Part of this was to take a closer look at a number of leading practices created in the region hosting our event: the Mediterranean has seen ground-breaking shares of renewable energy sources managed safely despite the relative isolation of its electric systems. Resource potential and geographical constraints have no doubt fostered the region’s innovative ability. These conditions can inspire and support other regions at a time when ambitious plans are necessary to meet our climate and energy targets.

During two days in Barcelona, we brought challenges, solutions and open questions related to RES integration to the stage. Among the topics we discussed were:

Offshore grid development

Regulation

Technical innovation

Public engagement
