The main goal of FLEXIGRID is to allow the distribution grid to operate in a secure and stable manner when a large share of variable generation electricity sources is connected to low and medium voltage grids.

To do so, FLEXIGRID proposes a three-level approach aiming at

  • Flexibility

  • Reliability

  • Economic Efficiency

through the development of innovative hardware and software solutions.

These solutions will be demonstrated in four Demo-Sites across Europe ensuring their interoperability through its integration into an open source platform able to harmonize the data flow between FLEXIGRID solutions and the real grid.

GOAL 1

To improve the power system flexibility by enhancing the grid hosting capacity of RES through DR, P2X, storage of electricity and variable generation towards the energy network decarbonization

GOAL 2

To increase the observability, controllability and automation of the network systems for the improvement of both the security and resilience of the grid

GOAL 3

To mitigate short-term and long-term congestions in the distributed grid from an economic efficient point of view thus reducing the cost of the European energy transition

GOAL 4

To ensure the interoperability and compatibility of the developed solutions with the different platforms used by the European DSOs guaranteeing a proper and secure data management

GOAL 5

To improve the power system flexibility by enhancing the grid hosting capacity of RES through DR, P2X, storage of electricity and variable generation towards the energy network decarbonization

GOAL 6

To increase the observability, controllability and automation of the network systems for the improvement of both the security and resilience of the grid

GOAL 7

To mitigate short-term and long-term congestions in the distributed grid from an economic efficient point of view thus reducing the cost of the European energy transition

GOAL 8

To ensure the interoperability and compatibility of the developed solutions with the different platforms used by the European DSOs guaranteeing a proper and secure data management
