AREVA's Transmission and Distribution (T&D) and PJM Interconnection have formed a strategic alliance to better address the challenges related to smarter transmission grids in the northeastern U.S.
PJM and AREVA T&D will work on improving system resiliency and efficiency in the new paradigm of smarter grids. Their joint efforts will focus on enriching AREVA T&D's e-terra applications suite with smarter dispatch technologies, which will enable the deployment of a new generation of resources and devices for improved operational efficiency and expanded system security.
‘Smarter teamwork is a key part of our strategy to create smarter grids, and our alliance with PJM is exactly that,’ says Jean-Michel Cornille, executive vice president for AREVA T&D's automation business unit. ‘We are looking forward to combining our complementary areas of expertise to help shape the direction of smart-grid technology, and to make more reliable, efficient and stronger networks a reality.’
