Cigre is an international organisation which focuses on all aspects of power generation and
delivery. Cigre is open for membership for engineers, practitioners and others interested in
this technology, its application, and its impact on economics and the environment This
paper provides a brief description of Cigre.
Cigre’s work is directed by the Technical Committee, which directs 16 different study
committees, which each has a number of Working Group, in which international experts
