Descrizione del progetto
Alimentare il futuro dell’integrazione delle energie rinnovabili
La natura dinamica delle fonti di energia rinnovabili rende complessa la gestione della loro generazione fluttuante e la garanzia di un approvvigionamento energetico affidabile. L’integrazione di queste risorse energetiche distribuite nelle reti esistenti richiede tecnologie avanzate. In questo contesto, il progetto UNITED-GRID, finanziato dall’UE, intende raggiungere almeno l’80 % di produzione di energia da fonti rinnovabili su base annua, con un miglioramento del 50 % delle prestazioni di affidabilità e una riduzione del 10 % delle perdite di rete. Svilupperà una cassetta degli attrezzi che comprende una serie di tecnologie all’avanguardia. Queste includono soluzioni di controllo e consapevolezza del sistema in tempo reale, previsioni di generazione e di carico a breve termine, schemi di protezione privi di impostazioni e nuovi modelli commerciali. L’integrazione di queste tecnologie in un sistema professionale garantisce l’interoperabilità e la perfetta integrazione con i sistemi esistenti.
Obiettivo
"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.
