Our area expertise

The electricity network and the services associated with it must adapt to new commercial, technological and environmental demands. Enedis is a research leader in developing ambitious innovations that will help to change electricity consumption in France.

The smart grids
Linky, the communicating meter

The electric grid evolves in a « smarter way » to support the energy transition and the new usages of electricity. At Enedis, we prepare this evolution through various demonstrators. Then, these solutions enter a roll-out phase. Therefore, the grid is optimized and can face the energy transition challenges, while ensuring a high level of quality for consumers.
