About
IREDonline Conference (Integration of Renewable & Distributed Energy Resources) is where global experts from industry, academia, and government come together to share insights and discuss the challenges and opportunities of integrating renewable energy and distributed energy resources (DER) into modern power systems. As the energy transition accelerates worldwide, our conference provides a unique platform to explore innovative solutions that drive progress in energy system transformation
This year’s event will explore how battery storage can deliver system-wide value, including its role in grid stability, congestion management, and flexibility services. Key topics will include coordination and control of distributed battery fleets, the interaction between battery deployment and grid reinforcement needs, and the regulatory and market frameworks required to enable value stacking and efficient use of battery capabilities.
By bringing together researchers, system operators, industry leaders, regulators, and policymakers, the conference will provide a platform for knowledge exchange and cross-sector dialogue on best practices for integrating battery storage into modern power systems.

Testimonials
Here is a preview of some of the personal statements from our Presenters and the Scientific Committee about IREDonline.
We are thrilled to launch IREDonline in response to the accelerating transition of energy systems. The need for more frequent, bi-annual gatherings has become evident. Our previous IRED conferences have been exceptionally successful in uniting experts from around the world to share insights, innovations, and solutions for integrating renewable and distributed energy resources.
