New methodology for planning expansion of the electricity grid
FlexPlan-projects developed a new methodology for planning the expansion of transmission and distribution networks. The methodology assesses the use of flexible resources, e.g. energy storage and end-user flexibility, as an alternative to the conventional approach, i.e. building new lines and/or components.
Buy renewable electricity from your neighbor, but at what price?
Buying electricity from your neighbor’s solar panel is quickly becoming reality, as electricity sharing schemes for distributed renewable electricity are realized through local energy communities. Alongside this new and exciting option arises the question: “what should the price be?
Cybersecurity in the electricity grid
The electricity grid is undergoing a digital transition to become intelligent, robust, and cost-efficient. We need to understand the threats and vulnerabilities related to the digital transition of the electricity grid with the aim of improved control over the cyber risks.
Increasing the pace of decarbonization with industrial flexibility
Instead of building new grid, utilizing flexibility in industrial processes could be a cheaper and faster way of integrating variable power production.
Results for a smarter electricity grid gathered on a single website
Sharing knowledge is important to achieving an electricity grid that is flexible, intelligent, robust and cost-efficient. CINELDI’s research results are now presented in an open-access knowledge base online, which will make the process of finding updated information much easier.
