System Efficiency
In the era of deployment of a smarter and more sustainable energy system, an overall perspective of system efficiency becomes increasingly important.
Single Marketplace for Flexibility
To use this flexibility in a coordinated way, an ever closer cooperation between System Operators will be required. Several approaches for the coordinated use of flexibility for system balancing and congestion management are imaginable.
The Smart and Strong Grid: Technology, Policy, and Finance to Connect People with Reliable Clean Energy
In the developing world, demand is growing rapidly, driving the need for massive investments in grids to connect more and more people while delivering high levels of service.
Spotlight on Smart and Strong Power T&D Infrastructure
This case book, prepared by ISGAN Annex 6 (Power T&D System), is a result of a comprehensive process of surveying, analysing and discussing important achievements in the application of smart grid approaches.
The role and interaction of microgrids and centralized grids in developing modern power systems
Synchrophasor Applications for Wide Area Monitoring and Control
Spotlight on Smart and Strong Electric Power Infrastructure
The introduction in the generation mix of a continuously increasing share of generation from renewable energy sources (RES), the geographical spread of generation when increasing the amount of distributed production, as well as changing patterns of demand from new types of load such as electric vehicles, will create new challenges for the electric power transmission and distribution (T&D) systems.
Storage and balancing as key elements for future network planning and electricity markets design
The aim of this report is to analyze the flexibility contribution that identified resources could provide as a contribution towards the achievement of efficient and cost-effective dispatching of the electric system, in presence of an ever increasing penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) which are characterized by a variable generation pattern.
The role and interaction of microgrids and centralized grids in developing modern power systems
An extension of microgrids is now underway, primarily to allow increased electrification in growing economies but also to meet the need to reduce global CO2 emissions and to provide ancillary services to centralized grids.
Spotlight on Smart and Strong Electric Power Infrastructure
This paper summarize a number of smart-grid cases from the case book within ISGAN Annex 6: Power T&D Systems.
