Descripción del proyecto
Impulsar la futura integración de las energías renovables
La naturaleza dinámica de las fuentes de energía renovables crea complejidades a la hora de gestionar su generación fluctuante y garantizar un suministro eléctrico fiable. Integrar estos recursos energéticos distribuidos en las redes existentes requiere tecnologías avanzadas. En este contexto, el equipo del proyecto UNITED-GRID, financiado con fondos europeos, tiene como objetivo alcanzar al menos un 80 % de producción anual de energía de origen renovable, con una mejora del 50 % de la fiabilidad y una reducción del 10 % de las pérdidas en la red. Así, se desarrollará un conjunto de herramientas que englobe una serie de tecnologías revolucionarias. Entre ellas, soluciones de control y conocimiento del sistema en tiempo real, previsiones de carga y generación a corto plazo, sistemas de protección sin ajuste y nuevos modelos de negocio. La integración de estas tecnologías en un sistema profesional garantiza la interoperabilidad y la perfecta integración con los sistemas existentes.
Objetivo
"UNITED-GRID aspires to be the arrow-head within “Integrated cyber-physical solutions for intelligent distribution grid with distributed energy resources” and addresses the challenges in the “competitive low-carbon energy"", relevant to next generation of active distribution grids.
UNITED-GRID will develop a tool-box with technologies enabling at least 80% renewable-based energy production on an annual basis, with an increased reliability performance of 50%, while decreasing grid losses by 10%. The developed technologies include e.g. solutions for real-time system awareness and control, short term generation and load forecasting, setting-less protection schemes and new business models. The tool-box will be integrated into a professional system ensuring interoperability and smooth integration with existing EMS/DMS on the market. To enhance future impacts, at least 2/3 of novel solutions which have been positively validated will have an agreed and financed development processes for the next TRL level beyond the project.
The project team has been selected carefully and has proven R&I, demonstration and deployment capabilities as well as established regulatory and policy channels. The team includes experienced research organisations (SP, TU/e, CEA, and Chalmers), 3 DSOs, a DMS provider and expert SME partners to ensure the exploitation of the developed solutions.
To further enhance the deployment towards a low carbon energy society, the project will together with at least 20 market actors define pathways to navigate in the rapidly changing energy environment. Furthermore, at least 25% of the test-pilots will sign a letter of commitment to execute parts of the developed pathways.
The real-life demonstrators, covering more than 80% of European market conditions, are provided by the project partners in-kind to an estimated value of €4.1M. With the requested EC contribution of €4M, the project encloses €8M, matching the UNITED-GRID projects ambitions and objectives.
