Today’s extraordinary meeting of Energy Community Distribution System Operators for Electricity (ECDSO-E) was dedicated to managing the operation of the electricity networks during the COVID-19 crisis.

Officials and experts from ten participating Energy Community distribution system operators elaborated on shared assessments of the critical issues that are or could constitute a threat to their operation. They agreed to publish an overview of the key challenges facing DSO operation as a result of the COVID-19 situation and their response.
