The transition to the power grid of the future
How do we achieve a power grid that is flexible, intelligent, robust, and cost-effective? This was the main question examined during the CINELDI days.
One step closer to a self-healing grid
We have developed two novel methods that can be used to accurately locate earth faults in isolated systems.
Protecting the real electrical grid by attacking a simulated one
In an increasingly digital society, protecting the electrical grid against cyberattacks has never been more important. As part of the European project SDN-microSENSE, SINTEF has helped develop tools to detect and mitigate cyberattacks, but they need to be tested before they can be deployed in the real grid. The solution? Deploy the tools in a simulated grid and launch real cyberattacks at them.
New pilot measures the actual capacity in the grid
What is the available capacity in a given power line right now, and what is the available capacity going to be in the next 48 hours? Do we have enough capacity, or do we have to employ measures like decreasing load or increasing production? These are central questions in a newly established pilot project within the FME CINELDI research centre.
A reference grid with Norwegian considerations
By using data from a real distribution grid, CINELDI has developed a more relevant reference grid for researching Norwegian smart grids.
A flexible power grid: what is it and why do we need it?
If we are to electrify the world in a way that is socioeconomically efficient and secure, we need a flexible power grid. But…
