About the session

What a difference five years can make. With the 2012 Olympics only five years away, the speaker focuses on some of the technological developments over the last five years and the drivers that got them to where they are today. From there, he outlines some of the challenges facing electricity distribution in the near term and some of potential technologies that will make up the future power network, demonstrating that the traditionally perceived network is a lot more dynamic than you might think.
