One month before the D-Day!

The Third International Conference on Renewable and DER integration* is to be held in Nice on 10, 11, 12th December 2008. It will address technical, market, and regulatory issues as a prerequisite to prepare massive DER integration into power grids, thus leaning on a continuous dialogue between all the involved players.
