“To transmit, transform, and keep the current flowing… for the common good.” — RTE
The RTE Campus in Jonage brings together the company’s training and research & development activities on a single site dedicated to electricity transmission. With over 30,000 m² of built space, it forms a true synergy hub within the Lyon innovation ecosystem (start-ups, clusters, fab labs, etc.). The campus is designed to experiment with and develop the digital technologies essential for managing tomorrow’s power grid—ranging from control-command systems to power electronics and information systems—all within the broader context of energy transition and necessary grid evolution.
