After the 2002 re-organisation, the technical activities of Cigre are covered by 16 Study Committees, organised into the A, B, C and D series. The D-type Study Committees, from the technological point of view, deal with those technologies driven by other fields, outside the EPI (Electricity Power Industry), but important for the realisation of EPI-applications.

Study Committee D2 (SC D2) covers the specification, design, engineering, performance, operation, maintenance, economic and management aspects of the Information and the Telecommunication systems in the EPI both for operational and business activities, as well as the different devices, media and networks to support all that services: speech, data, video, internet, specialised signalling for teleprotection, SCADA, EMS, DSM….

It also includes the monitoring of the emerging technologies in these sectors to evaluate their possible impact on the EPI, the analysis of the effect of multiple Regulators: eg Power, Telecommunications, Competition Authorities, etc in both the telecommunication and information sectors, and the provision of technical support for international standardisation activities.

It follows the activities of the former SC 35 “Telecommunication and Telecontrol systems for Power Systems” and its pre-1966 predecessors, including information technologies.
