EDF International Networks

🌏 EDF International Networks is supporting Elektrodistribucija Srbije doo Beograd (EDS) in the large‑scale modernization and digitalisation of Serbia’s electricity distribution network, strengthening its resilience, efficiency and safety.

🔹 Last week in Belgrade, important discussions took place on the future of energy cooperation between France and Serbia.

🔹 Teams from EDF and EDF International Networks also gathered at the French Embassy to exchange on current and future cooperation opportunities in the energy sector — once again highlighting the EDF Group’s strength in mobilizing complementary expertise across the entire electricity value chain.

🔹 From generation to networks, transforming power systems requires a systemic vision — a hallmark of the EDF Group built on decades of experience.

🔹 Constructive discussions, strong alignment and promising perspectives ahead.
Looking forward to translating this shared ambition into concrete initiatives in the near future.

🌍 Collaboration with AFD – Agence Française de Développement: Showcasing the Excellence of the French Electricity Distribution Sector

We were pleased to welcome a delegation of 20 experts from AFD – Agence Française de Développement to our Innovation Lab. This visit showcased the unique expertise and operational excellence EDF Group and the French electricity distribution sector.

🔹 The discussions focused on the specific challenges faced by DSOs (Distribution System Operators) in the energy transition: grid modernization, large-scale renewable integration, and digital flexibility. To meet these needs, France has developed Leading expertise and established solutions tailored to the complex evolution of distribution networks.

🔹 A key highlight was the “Equipe France” (Team France) approach. We emphasized how the synergy between institutional partners like AFD and French technical experts provides a powerful, integrated value proposition for major international infrastructure projects.

🔶 We sincerely thank the AFD teams for their visit and the quality of our technical exchanges.

🌎 Speaking at the AIEQ (Association de l’industrie électrique du Québec) Forum: AI and the Modernization of Electricity Distribution Grids
 
Mathieu Carluer represented EDF International Networks at the AIEQ Forum, delivering a presentation on the technical and human realities of integrating artificial intelligence solutions into distribution grid operations.
 
🔹 This intervention was an opportunity to share his experience and emphasize that deploying AI use cases at a company-wide scale extends far beyond technological transformation.

🔹 Drawing on real-life examples of both successful and unsuccessful deployments, he illustrated why the true challenge lies not in the technical stack, but in adopting a human‑centric approach and considering workforce impact, skills development, innovation management, and team interactions to unlock the benefits of AI for a Disitribution System Operator.
 
🔶 Sincere thanks to the AIEQ, Marie Lapointe, and Daniel Bazan, MBA for the invitation, and to Olivier Ebert and Wemba OPOTA from Capgemini for this collaborative work.
