description FLEXIGRID will provide models, techniques and optimisation algorithms to provide a smart VTES-coupled heating solution combining optimally TES and P2H technologies. Dynamic building thermal inertia models will be configured to reflect the thermal behaviour of buildings under varying usage constraints (e.g. operations, occupancy) and building envelope characteristics. [...]
description A ready-to-use tool for optimal selection of distribution network operating points by utilizing flexibility services for provision of distribution-level ancillary services (network peak reduction, voltage stability, N-1 criterion); defining optimal topology for operation of the distribution network based on switching states of the distribution network topology (reducing [...]
description This use case will analyse the requirements and develop appropriate processes for 1) peak shaving at the substation level to reduce network charges and losses stabilising where possible the output from variable renewable sources; 2) congestion management at the substation level to support the upstream distribution network [...]
description Based on registered measurements by sensors and other devices installed along the MV network, VERD will develop different algorithms, processes and systems to manage the local energy use in the network. Under normal operation, the total local energy system will be optimised towards minimising energy costs. Under [...]
description Improvement of the protections of primary (HV) and secondary (MV) distribution networks and the algorithms for their operation, in grids with high penetration of RES. As it has been showed in previous BRIDGE projects such as MIGRATE (focused on the transmission network), current protection systems have problems [...]
description The development of the “Secondary Substation (SS)” as a vehicle that includes operation and control algorithms and functionalities is proposed. These new SS will be able to take advantage of the available information and the communications channels used by meters, RTUs and other devices in an optimized [...]
In order to reach the Paris Agreement objectives and achieve a more sustainable energy system, the EU is aiming at increasing up to at least 32% the share of renewables in energy consumption. At this purpose FLEXIGRID project will develop a set of solutions to address, under a cost-efficient basis, [...]
