Panel Discussion: The Rise of OSPOs in Grid Operations: Insights and Lessons From Hydro-Québec...
summary
Alliander launches its OSPO after a 2019 open‑source strategy and formalizes it in 2020; Hydro‑Québec's ASPO starts end of 2023; RTE open‑sources the elephant simulator and uses that release to bootstrap an LF Energy project. Concrete moves include legal consultancy to set license policy, a wiki knowledge hub and team channel, IBM help on a security-first project, and measurable wins: CNCF contributions within a year and cited research that ~95% of mission‑critical systems already include open source.
