Where grid strategy meets manufacturing and supply chain reality
Launching at CWIEME Berlin 2027, the Grid Delivery Summit focuses on the industry’s biggest challenge: execution.
As grid investment accelerates, delivering infrastructure at scale now depends on alignment across the organisations responsible for planning, building, and supplying the grid. This is where operators, EPCs, OEMs, and suppliers come together to remove bottlenecks and move from plan to delivery.

What is the Grid Delivery Summit?
A 2-day high-level, working forum at Messe Berlin, 11-12 May 2027, focused on turning grid plans into operational infrastructure.
The Grid Delivery Summit connects the full value chain—from raw materials and components through to transformers, systems, and network deployment—so that decisions made at strategy level translate into real-world delivery outcomes.
Because grid delivery doesn’t fail on vision. It fails in coordination, capacity, and execution.

The Summit will address...
Manufacturing bottlenecks
Limited transformer capacity, testing constraints, and lack of standardisation are slowing deployment and increasing project risk.
Supply chain pressure
Critical materials—including electrical steel, copper, and insulation—remain constrained, impacting availability, pricing, and timelines across the value chain.
Execution risk
From procurement through to installation, misalignment across stakeholders continues to delay delivery.
The Forum's content pillars
The Grid Delivery Summit will deliver focused discussions designed to solve real delivery challenges.
Grid expansion at scale
Grid modernisation and asset life expansion
Reliability, resilience and risk
Workforce development
Decarbonisation and efficiency

Partner with the Grid Delivery Summit
The Grid Delivery Summit offers a unique opportunity to position your organization at the center of one of the industry’s most urgent challenges: delivering the grid at scale.
As a sponsor, you will:
- Engage directly with decision-makers from utilities, EPCs, and OEMs
- Build strategic relationships across the full value chain
- Align your brand with execution, not just innovation
This is not a broad awareness platform—it is a targeted environment focused on outcomes, partnerships, and procurement alignment.
Unlike traditional energy conferences, the Grid Delivery Summit connects grid strategy directly with electrical manufacturing expertise. Hosted within CWIEME Berlin, it brings together the full value chain — from materials and components to transformers, automation, and infrastructure delivery — creating a more practical and commercially relevant environment for solving real grid challenges.
Attendees will have access to dedicated networking spaces, peer-to-peer discussions, technical roundtables, and the exclusive Transmission & Distribution Club. These sessions are designed to encourage collaboration between utilities, OEMs, manufacturers, and solution providers tackling shared industry challenges such as lead times, grid resilience, and infrastructure investment.
Sessions will explore the most pressing issues facing the power sector, including transformer availability, grid reliability, AI and digitalisation, transmission and distribution infrastructure, sustainability, asset lifecycle management, and the technologies enabling smarter, more resilient grids. The programme is built around practical insight, peer discussion, and system-level thinking.
The summit is designed for professionals working across the transmission and distribution ecosystem, including grid operators, utilities, transformer and generator manufacturers, procurement leaders, system integrators, and infrastructure specialists. It is particularly valuable for organisations involved in grid modernisation, renewable integration, energy resilience, and large-scale electrification projects.
