Meet Our Experts to Debate About Key Topics

From November 18–20, ENLIT Europe arrives in Bilbao — a city deeply rooted in the energy industry — and ZIV is proud to welcome this global event to our home. This year, our experts will be on hand to share real-world insights and discuss the technologies shaping the power grid of tomorrow. Let’s dive into the topics we’re bringing to the table.

Is Your LV Grid Ready for the Future?

As the low-voltage (LV) grid evolves to accommodate distributed energy resources (DERs), electric vehicles, and prosumers, maintaining voltage stability becomes increasingly complex. ZIV is tackling this challenge with advanced voltage control solutions built around the integration of smart meters, OLTC (on-load tap changer) transformers, and capacitor banks — all orchestrated by intelligent algorithms.

Our experts will showcase how these technologies enable real-time monitoring and active control across LV feeders, ensuring compliance with voltage limits and improving overall grid performance. You’ll discover how the ZIV TwinGrid architecture supports decentralized intelligence and enhances network visibility, empowering operators to shift from reactive to predictive grid management.

How Do You Re-energize the Grid When Black Start Fails?

Traditional black start strategies are often insufficient in today’s decentralized energy landscape. That’s why ZIV is rethinking grid recovery with Distributed Restart Zones (DRZ) — an innovative framework that uses transient analysis and DER coordination to restore power from the bottom up.

During ENLIT, we’ll explain how ZIV TwinGrid uses tools like DER emulation of inertia, local voltage and frequency support, and storage integration to build microgrid resilience. Our experts will present how this approach shortens restoration times, increases safety, and sets the foundation for semi-automated, DER-based recovery strategies.

Deployment of Next-Generation Smart Meters in Spain and Greece

ZIV is leading the deployment of next-generation metering infrastructure across Europe, with major projects currently underway in Spain and Greece. These meters go far beyond traditional remote reading — offering NB-IoT communication, Wireless M-Bus for water metering, and modular ports for future expansions.

Join us to hear lessons learned, implementation tips, and key takeaways for upcoming rollouts. Whether you’re planning your first smart meter deployment or looking to migrate to PLC PRIME 1.4, our metering experts will be available to share their experience and answer your questions.
