Rationalising the way in which the grid is operated | RTE
New-generation smart substations. These high and ultra-high-voltage substations can accommodate up to 30% more electricity from renewable energy sources. Fitted with optical fibres and sensors, they monitor real-time power flows and gather the data required for dynamically controlling the power system.

Smart grids | CRE
With smart grids, consumption can be tailored to production, which is why "consum''actors" play a vital role. Smart electricity meters, like Linky, or their natural gas equivalents, such as Gazpar, are among the first additions to France''s future energy grids. Bring complementarities into play

''A very good year'': France toasts rapid energy storage growth
Three energy storage systems totalling 32MW, including two-hour and three-hour duration batteries, act as absorbers of surplus renewable energy on the grid. The other is a flexibility tender: RTE sought options in four strategic locations where surplus renewable generation and growth in load from EV uptake is causing grid congestion at substations.

What is a smart grid in Toulouse?
A smart grid in Toulouse (southwestern France) on the scale of an economic activity area, including installations for renewable energy production, low environmental impact storage, and a centralised technical management system. The system has become more complex with the arrival of renewable energy.
Is France ready for a smart grid?
Today, France is one of the most advanced countries in the world when it comes to the digitalisation of its electrical grid and the industrial deployment of smart grid use cases. RTE and Enedis, respectively France’s TSO and DSO, have already integrated many smart grid solutions into their day-to-day network management process.
How will smart grids affect France's future energy grids?
With smart grids, consumption can be tailored to production, which is why "consum'actors" play a vital role. Smart electricity meters, like Linky, or their natural gas equivalents, such as Gazpar, are among the first additions to France's future energy grids.
What is the French smart grids sector?
The French Smart Grids sector has passed a milestone thanks to the development of three major programmes driven by the territories: FLEXGRID (Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur), Smile (Brittany and Pays de la Loire) and YOU & GRID (Lille Metropole and Hauts-de- France).
How will think smartgrids impact France?
The dynamic that France will inspire by implementing Think Smartgrids recommendations and projects is also likely to provide significant prospects for international development among French businesses, from start-ups to major operators and equipment manufacturers, energy companies and digital service companies.
How is electricity storage developing in France?
The development of electricity storage is dynamic in France where there are currently over 250 MW of projects compared to less than ten last year. In addition, in February 2020, RTE selected nearly 400 MW of new capacities which are greener, flexible, and useful for security of supply for the period 2021-2028.
