Transmission System Operators (TSOs)

Transmission System Operators (TSOs) are organizations responsible for managing and maintaining the high-voltage electric grid that transports electricity from power plants to local distribution networks. They ensure the reliable and efficient flow of electricity, balancing supply and demand in real-time. TSOs coordinate the operation of transmission lines, monitor grid stability, and handle system upgrades. They also facilitate cross-border electricity exchange in interconnected regions. Essentially, TSOs act as the 'central nervous system' of the electricity network, ensuring that power reaches consumers safely, reliably, and efficiently.
