“Smart Grid Vendée” project aims to experiment with, at the level of the Vendée department, new solutions for controlling and modernizing the distribution of electricity. This project is particularly relevant with the process of energy transition engaged in France. Over a period of 5 years, this veritable «open-air laboratory» involves more than 150 local authorities, industrialists, start-ups, researchers, engineers and teachers, with a view to testing new solutions to pave the way for the power grid of tomorrow.
