How Does CIGRÉ operate? 

CIGRÉ achieves its objects by all appropriate methods, notably as follows:

• It organises, every two years, a conference known as a 'Session' held in Paris for 2500 delegates.
• In the years without a Session it organises 'Symposia' spread in locations around the world.
• It provides a means of addressing issues particular to countries or regions through the action of its 'National Committees' and 'Regions'.
• Through its sixteen 'Study Committees' (each with multiple 'Working Groups') it carries out and encourages international investigations, coordinated by the CIGRÉ 'Technical Committee'.
• It creates and maintains friendly relations between associations, administrations, engineers, academics, researchers and manufacturers in all countries.
• It collaborates with the IEC and other international organisations of related interests.
