Research Project SysStab2030

The aim of the research project is to accelerate the introduction of the system services required by generation plants and consumers to maintain power system stability. Methods for determining system requirements are to be (further) developed and utilized. The solutions will be evaluated from a technical perspective and in terms of their pragmatic feasibility. In the overall project, methods for the assessment of needs to maintain short-term stability with regard to frequency, voltage and transient stability as well as resonant stability are to be further developed.

Subproject: System requirements and system studies for transient stability

The work of the IEE focuses on the determination of system requirements and the performance of system studies for transient stability, i.e. the ability of the power system to maintain synchronism when subjected to a severe transient disturbance.
 

The work of Fraunhofer IEE includes the following points:

• Development and implementation of practicable RMS plant models for grid-following and grid-forming wind, photovoltaic and battery plants under the conditions of a future grid.
• Development of methods to quantitatively determine and localize the technical requirements to ensure transient stability. These technical system requirements should be determined independently of the technology, as various technologies can be considered to cover these system requirements.
• Development and validation of practicable, aggregated distribution grid models for transient stability studies.
• Conduct systems studies to demonstrate that the developed methods for the determination of power system needs are applicable to ensure transient stability in real-world data sets.
