Webinar: New business models for distribution grid stakeholders under high penetration of DER
In a context with high penetration of distributed energy resources, the smartening and digitalization of distribution grids enable unlocking the potential of distributed flexibilities. However, new business models are necessary to make this a reality. This webinar will explore some of these new business models, with a focus on four main agents, namely DSOs, aggregators, end-users, and data service providers. The challenges and opportunities for these stakeholders are discussed, with an emphasis on perspective of the DSO as neutral market facilitator and distribution system optimizer.
The work presented in this webinar is part of the European H2020 project Integrid (https://integrid-h2020.eu/).
Webinar: Assessment of smart grid initiatives: the ISGAN smartgrideval toolkit
Smart grid initiatives have grown the complexity of planning activities, the related wide-range impacts require broad approaches for being properly accounted. The webinar analyses current practices and use cases of the assessment approaches. The advantages of combining Cost-Benefit and Multi-Criteria analyses are presented. A tutorial on the smartgrideval software developed as a part of ISGAN activities is provided.
Webinar: The need to model coupled energy networks to transition to a decarbonized future
The coordination between planners and operators of coupled energy systems will allow the further integration of renewable energy sources in the electricity network by storing energy in fuel form over long periods of time using power-to-gas, the recovery and more efficient use of heat, and the decarbonization of industrial processes and transportation modes that can’t be electrified.
Energy networks, such as electricity grids and natural gas pipeline networks, have traditionally been planned and operated independently. In order to enhance the integration and coordination of different energy networks, they must be planned and operated in coupled ways. Different energy networks have historically been and are still modelled by different tools.
Webinar: CoordiNet- Large scale demonstrations for TSO-DSO Cooperation
The webinar presents the CoordiNet project which aims at demonstrating how Distribution System Operators (DSO) and Transmission System Operators (TSO) shall act in a coordinated manner to procure and activate grid services in the most reliable and efficient way through the implementation of three large-scale demonstrations.
Webinar: Outcomes of the KTP on Regulatory Sandboxes
The International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN) provides a strategic platform to support high-level government attention and action for the accelerated development and deployment of smarter, cleaner electricity grids globally. Experimental Sandboxes for Smart Grid Transitions has been the focus for a major ISGAN Inter-Annex knowledge exchange initiative in partnership with the International Confederation of Energy Regulators (ICER), involving more than 20 countries, with the purpose of identifying key lessons learned and examples of good practice in regard to the design and implementation of such innovative policy instruments. This webinar will disseminate and discuss the outcomes of this project.
Webinar: Flexibility needs in the future power system
This webinar introduces you to the flexibility needs in the future power system. Multiple angles are considered: stability, frequency, voltage, power quality and balance at different time scales (from seconds to hours and seasonal adequacy).
ISGAN Award 2019 Webinar: Excellence of the Local Integrated Energy Systems (Microgrids)
This webinar introduces you to advanced electricity grid concepts through two concrete projects: – Open Micro Grid Project of Korea Electric Power Corporation – RIGRID – Rural Intelligent Grid Project (net zero energy system)
Dynamic Line Rating: Principles – Applications – Benefits
The next webinar in the ISGAN Academy introduces you to the physics of Dynamic Line Rating (DLR). Learn how DLR data have been integrated into grid operators’ processes, and how they can help to increase cross-border trading, reduce grid congestion, and support investment decisions.
Webinar: Outcomes of the ISGAN Knowledge Exchange Project on experimental (regulatory) sandboxes to enable smart grid deployment
Experimental Sandboxes for Smart Grid Transitions has been the focus for a major ISGAN Inter-Annex knowledge exchange initiative in partnership with the International Confederation of Energy Regulators (ICER), involving more than 20 countries, with the purpose of identifying key lessons learned and examples of good practice in regard to the design and implementation of such innovative policy instruments. This webinar will disseminate and discuss the outcomes of this project.
Webinar: Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) Energy Services
Along with rapid EV uptake will come significant increase in electricity demand and electric power impact on the grid as public, private, and fast-charging infrastructure is developed. The ability to control and plan for the coming EV revolution will be crucial to ensuring the security of supply of global electric grids while weaning the transportation sector off of fossil fuels.
