The European Utilities Telecom Council (EUTC) recently presented the first formal review to the European Commission of its Information Communications Technology for Smart Distributed Generation (ICT4SMARTDG) project.

Together with work packages leaders Jesus Garcia Martin from Iberdrola, Isidro Cabello Medina, from Telefonica, Fabio Tassara from Samares and David Wilkinson from Alcatel-Lucent – EUTC Director Peter Moray presented the work achieved so far by the project to Pierre Chastanet, project officer at the European Commission, and three independent reviewers. The review occurred on March 24th.

All congratulated the project for the amount of work produced, and the excellent results achieved so far. The review was a very positive exercise to assess the progress of the project, identify potential difficulties, and use the external input to develop in the right direction. A report will be submitted by the European Commission in the next month, and a similar meeting will take place in March 2011.
