Outage Management for DSOs 2026

Outage Management for DSOs 2026 is Europe’s leading forum dedicated to strengthening grid resilience, improving outage response, and modernising distribution network operations in an increasingly decentralised and electrified energy landscape. As extreme weather events, renewable integration, cyber risks, and rising electricity demand place growing pressure on distribution networks, DSOs must adopt smarter, faster, and more predictive outage management strategies.

This conference brings together DSOs, utilities, grid operators, digitalisation leaders, emergency response teams, and technology providers to explore the latest innovations in outage detection, restoration automation, fault prediction, and grid resilience. Key discussions include AI-driven outage forecasting, advanced OMS and ADMS integration, real-time grid visibility, distributed energy resource coordination, and customer communication strategies during disruptions.

Attendees will gain practical insights into leveraging smart grid technologies, digital twins, predictive analytics, IoT sensors, and automation tools to minimise downtime and improve operational reliability. Through case studies and expert discussions, the event highlights how DSOs can build more resilient, efficient, and future-ready electricity distribution networks across Europe.
