Efficient development of the industry can only be attained by adopting scientific achievements that ensure high technical, economic, and environmental parameters of electric power installations, stable operation of electricity networks, adequate system frequency and voltage, stable functioning of energy systems, desired power interchange levels, low losses, and reliable and uninterrupted power supply for consumers.

One of the main national objectives pertaining to the electricity industry is to solve vital issues related to improvement and innovative development of the electric grid sector, as this objective is directly linked with the implementation of projects for integrated research into development, modernization, and technical upgrading of transmission and distribution networks.

Creation of favorable conditions for the development of innovative activities aimed at renovating the production and technological base of the electric grid sector depends, among other things, on integration of experience of and innovative design efforts by Russian institutions and entities and foreign companies. The IPNES 2010 Exhibition and Conference make it possible to present in-house products, technologies, goods, and services designed for efficient development of the electric grid sector. The events will enable the participating companies to discuss issues related to regulation and compliance control, familiarize themselves with state-of-the-art technologies, and establish business relations with service providers and equipment suppliers.

The Exhibition and Conference will make a substantial contribution to innovative development of the sector, enhance its competitiveness, and promote investment and adoption of modern technologies in the electric grid sector.
