With data-driven modelling towards a successful energy transition

Descrizione del progetto

Favorire lo sviluppo delle reti elettriche guardando al futuro

L’Europa dispone di una delle più grandi reti elettriche regionali interconnesse al mondo. Al fine di alimentare tutte le apparecchiature, dagli elettrodomestici ai grandi impianti industriali, la rete elettrica mette in collegamento i consumatori di elettricità con i generatori. L’attuale sistema energetico si dimostra affidabile, sebbene abbia bisogno di evolversi per soddisfare esigenze future e attuare la transizione a generatori basati sull’energia rinnovabile (impianti eolici e solari). In quest’ottica, il progetto DAMOSET, finanziato dall’UE, studierà i percorsi per approdare a un sistema interamente sostenibile. Saranno adottati approcci basati sui dati per fare luce sulle fluttuazioni nella rete elettrica. Tramite l’analisi delle reti britanniche e internazionali, il progetto contribuirà ad approfondire le conoscenze sulle differenze nel funzionamento delle reti e sulle possibili soluzioni.

Obiettivo

The power grid is an integral part of the power system. It connects all electrical consumers with generators and powers everything from household appliances to large factory machinery. Without this grid, farmers would not be able to feed their animals, car factories would come to a halt, mobile phone systems would fail and many of us would not even be able to make a cup of tea. While the current power system is very reliable and offers a high quality of service, it remains unclear how this will develop in the future. The limited supply of fossil fuels as well as necessary reduction of CO2 emissions to mitigate climate change, will eventually lead to a power grid mainly supplied by renewable generators, such as wind and solar plants. These plants output smaller total power so that a large number is necessary which have to be geographically distributed for optimal weather conditions. The current power grid system slowly emerged within several decades of optimization processes. However, now we are discussing how to revolutionize the whole energy system within years. Therefore, a fundamental understanding of the current power system is necessary to develop potential pathways to a future 100% sustainable system. In the proposed research, I will use data-driven approaches to work towards a quantitative understanding of fluctuations in the power grid, as they are for example introduced by the changing demand or volatile energy generation. I will analyse the British as well as international grids to understand differences in grid operation and potential solutions for grids. A key goal of the proposed project is to offer a data base of these measurements for the scientific community to analyse and to add to. Within this project, I will also develop analysis tools to be used by the scientific community as well as interested companies or government agencies.
