GEODE Spring Seminar 2025

On May 27th, we will hold our annual GEODE Spring Seminar at the Renaissance Hotel (Rue du Parnasse 19, 1050 Brussels), located in the heart of the EU quarter. The event will begin with a welcoming lunch at 13:00, followed by the opening session at 13:45, and will conclude with networking drinks from 17:30-18:30. After the seminar, we invite you to join us for the official dinner at 20:00 (Brighton Restaurant of the Stanhope Hotel).

This year’s seminar, titled “Keeping the Grids Momentum: Fostering EU Competitiveness”, will focus on the vital role of distribution grids in enhancing industrial competitiveness and advancing decarbonisation. The recent release of key European Commission flagship initiatives, the Clean Industrial Deal and the Affordable Energy Action Plan, highlights the need to strengthen EU industrial competitiveness while accelerating the energy transition. To achieve this, unlocking the full potential of grids as key enablers requires substantial investments to expand and digitalize infrastructure, including anticipatory ones. To explore these challenges and opportunities, GEODE’s seminar will bring together representatives from European institutions, regulators, industry stakeholders, and DSOs.
