The primary method of activity of CIGRE is by the working groups (WG) appointed within the Study Committees. Works of the working groups enable the exchange of knowledge, information, experience and cooperation among the experts from around the world.
Currently, in the structures of CIGRE more than 200 working groups are active where more than 2500 experts from around the world are involved. The results of working groups activity are published in the form of a technical brochure where the current knowledge concerning the selected issue is gathered. Summary and comments on published technical brochures are presented in current issues of ELECTRA.
