R&D NESTER PARTICIPATES IN OPTIGRID PROJECT
R&D Nester is co-promotor in the OptiGRID project, which main objectives are the development of an operational tool and a methodology using Dynamic Line Rating to facilitate an increase of RES integration in the power system and to reduce the number of separation hours of markets.
R&D Nesters' main contribution for this project englobes an analysis to real power systems, analysis to the interchange capacity (import and export) available between markets and its bids on the intra-day and day-ahead markets, analysis to case studies with different scenarios (region with wind distributed generation, region with solar distributed generation, market splitting scenario) and analysis to the improvements obtained with the use of the developed tool in this project.
This project is a partnership between R&D Nester and LNEG, with a duration of 36 months, starting in end of 2018 and finishing in 2021.
The project is financed by the P2020 program.
