FACING TOMORROW’S ENERGY CHALLENGES

The global electricity transmission and distribution market is growing at a fast pace and this is forecast to continue over the coming years. New challenges such as network interconnections, power generation diversity, including increased renewable energy providers, as well as a heightened focus on efficiency, reliability and environment-friendliness, will offer significant growth potential for AREVA T&D. With over 125 years of experience, AREVA T&D is well-positioned to meet the energy challenges of today and tomorrow.

Growing Energy Needs Worldwide

According to the International Energy Agency, the demand for energy is projected to increase by 53% between 2004 and 2030, particularly in fast-developing countries, such as China and India, which represent over 70% of this increase. Oil-producing countries, such as the Gulf States, are also massively investing in their transmission and distribution infrastructures.

Making Smarter Grids a Reality

You may have heard about the SMART GRID, but what exactly does it mean?

SMART GRID is the transmission and distribution power grid of the future. Electrical grids need to deliver more energy, with greater flexibility, and in a more complex environment - but with the same infrastructure - going from today's one-way centralized electricity network towards a dynamic and bidirectional flow of energy and data.
