The planning and operation of the power system will be affected substantially by the development of the hydrogen sector, mainly due to the electrification of hydrogen production. This work explores the impact of the integration of the hydrogen sector on the power sector in three dimensions: power grid planning; power
Electrification of energy demand (particularly in heating and mobility) alongside the rapid proliferation of distributed generation (especially rooftop PV) is presenting significant challenges to distribution system operators (DSOs). Most distribution grids were not typically designed to accommodate the increased, and especially the bidirectional, power flows. To reduce the need for
This report has been developed within the framework of international collaboration between ISGAN, BRIDGE, and the European Commission’s BeFlexible project. It reflects the joint efforts of project partners to analyse how different acquisition mechanisms, such as network tariffs, flexible connection agreements, and local flexibility markets, can support DSOs in addressing
The increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, alongside growing policy support for decarbonization and decentralized energy systems, has heightened interest in local flexibility markets across Europe. Within the framework of the EU’s Clean Energy Package—particularly Directive (EU) 2019/944 and Regulation (EU) 2019/943—Distribution System Operators (DSOs) are encouraged to explore flexible
This data and digitalisation case studies collection was prepared by the Energy Systems Catapult UK on behalf of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), UK, under the ISGAN Working Group 9 Task on Interoperability. Energy Systems Catapult acts as the UK Alternate Delegate for ISGAN and manages
This brochure presents the insights gathered as part of the ISGAN WG9 Task, drawn from stakeholder engagements with representatives from Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the United Kingdom, and Spain. As energy systems undergo rapid transformation due to increasing electrification and the integration of distributed energy resources,
