Introduction

On CIGRE International’s behalf, Stichting CIGRE Nederland encourages and promotes the exchange of knowledge about electricity transmission and generation nationally and internationally in the Netherlands. Companies, organisations, institutes and young professionals all work together in the knowledge network.

CIGRE is represented in more than 90 countries and, as such, provides a global forum for the development and open exchange of knowledge, information and expertise in the electricity sector that is both technically-relevant for and practical for the future of electric energy systems. This gives our members a unique opportunity to further develop technical competencies, both individually and collectively, at a national and international level, and also to strengthen authoritative, unbiased technical advice.
