Webinar: Electricity market designs for flexibility: from zonal to nodal architectures, findings from first market simulations

27 May 2021 14:00 CEST - Which are the most suitable market designs to capture the value of flexibility in power systems? The European project OSMOSE has developed different models from nodal to zonal market architectures to assess the economic value of different flexibility mixes (load, generation and power flows) in future power system scenarios. The webinar will introduce the zonal and nodal market designs modelled in OSMOSE, present the

Webinar: IEC61850 standard: what for, which benefits, what pending challenges? How is the Osmose project contributing?

3 May 2021 15:00 CEST - This webinar introduces the IEC61850 standard on communication protocols for intelligent electronic devices at electrical substations, and its benefits. The interoperability needs and issues are presented, as well as the IEC61850 scope and structure, its applications fields, and complementarity with other standards. It concludes on the ongoing developments within the OSMOSE project for the standard’s implementation (subject of a second webinar).

Webinar: Advanced weather forecasting for RES applications: multi-source observations to improve solar forecasting within the Smart4RES project

29 Apr. 2021 13:00 CEST - ISGAN and Smart4RES invite you to the 2nd part of its webinar series on Advanced Weather Forecasting. This webinar will present solar irradiance forecasting methods based on a network of ground-based sky cameras, radiometers and ceilometers as well as satellite data. Furthermore, new designs to data assimilation are presented that combine the best of the observations with the best of numerical weather prediction models

23 Mar. 2021 12:30 CET This 3rd Smart4RES webinar will address technological and market challenges in RES prediction and will introduce the Smart4RES strategy to improve weather forecasting models with high resolution. Through wind and solar applications, Innovative Numerical Weather Prediction and Large-Eddy Simulation approaches will be presented.

Webinar: Innovative solutions for increased regional cross-border cooperation in the transmission grid: the FARCROSS project

1 Mar. 2021 12:30 CET- The webinar will provide insight into the FARCROSS Horizon 2020 EU research project. Driven by recent development in EU internal market for electricity regulation, increased cooperation is key element for improving the interconnectors’ utilization and market harmonization. FARCROSS project looks into these challenges and promotes integrated hardware and software solutions in 5 pilot demonstrators across 8 European countries.

21st Meeting of the Executive Committee (ExCo)

The 21st Meeting of the Executive Committee (ExCo) of the International Smart Grid Action Network (ISGAN) will take place March 16th-18th, 2021 as a virtual meeting.

Smart5Grid kickoff meeting

The project will investigate the implementation of 5G connectivity in Energy sector, by developing 4 demonstrators in Italy, Spain, Bulgaria and Greece, for testing different applications in energy industry and Smart Grids. Besides that, the project will also develop a framework to facilitate the development of NetAPPs, fostering the access to new markets for SMEs.

Capturing Flexibility in Local Energy Systems Workshop

Canada, with ISGAN Annex 6, is hosting a public workshop titled “Capturing flexibility from local energy systems,” inviting participants to explore the role distributed energy resources (loads, storage devices, and small generation) will have in a deeply decarbonised, next generation smart grid.
