As you know, within a short span of 3 years, ISGW has evolved as one among the most popular international events on smart grids and smart cities. This edition of ISGW will have 225+ eminent speakers from 40+ countries. We have already received registrations from 2000+ delegates and visitors from 55 countries. The event will have 4 bilateral workshops (with European Union, USA, Sweden and France) for building collaborations between utilities in India and utilities and technology providers in those countries. Besides there will be full day parallel sessions on Smart Water on 07 th March 2018 and on Smart City Gas Distribution on 08th March 2018. The Roundtables on “Blockchain for Utilities” and “Smart Policies and Regulations for 21 st Century” scheduled on 08th March 2018 has drawn huge interest amongst various stakeholders. During the recent past Government of India has taken several ground breaking policy initiatives towards electric grid modernization, building 100 smart cities and rejuvenating 500 old towns, introducing electric vehicles and bullet trains on fast track; and also made firm commitment at Paris Climate Agreement for transition to a low carbon economy with 40% of energy from non-fossil resources by 2030. Some of the key initiatives taken for grid modernization include: o Smart Grid Vision and Roadmap for India in August 2013 o National Smart Grid Mission approved in 2015 o New RE Program launched in Feb 2015 with a target of 175 GW by 2022 of which 100 GW from Solar o Net Metering Policies in all 29 States and 7 Union Territories in last 4 years – every electricity customer in India can be a “prosumer” theoretically o Model Smart Grid Regulations approved by Forum of Regulators in 2015
