  • Introduction to Iec 62361-102 Cim - 61850 Harmonization
    25th International Conference on Electricity Distribution Madrid, 3-6 June 2019 Paper n° 1368 INTRODUCTION TO IEC 62361-102 CIM - 61850 HARMONIZATION Tom BERRY Schneider Electric – France [email protected] ABSTRACT TR IEC 62361-102 [1] is a Technical Specification that describes a mapping for information exchange between power system installations based on the modelling approach of IEC 61850; and business systems based on IEC CIM standard data exchanges. The document includes proposals to ‘harmonize’ the two standards by adapting or extending existing information models and/or defining new models, where such changes will enable more effective communication. This paper explains the key mapping principles and some of the recommendations for future editions of the standards. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? The smart grid initiatives in the USA, Europe and Asia Figure 1: Data models for Smart Grids Architectural have all recognized the necessity to establish solid Methodology standards for communicating between all the "smart" devices. For interoperability purposes, it has been Several studies [3] and reports [4,5] have already been recognized, at an early stage, that widely shared semantics produced on the subject of harmonization, but failed to get to describe power systems would be necessary. Power sufficient support for publication as IEC standards or systems are complex and several technical groups have technical specifications. The approach taken by the task worked on different aspects of communication. There are force was to concentrate on a fundamental use case related different needs for information exchange within different to configuration of real time communication between contexts e.g. within a substation or within control centres.

  • Efficient Probabilistic Analysis of Offshore Wind Turbines Based On
    Efficient probabilistic analysis of offshore wind turbines based on time-domain simulations Von der Fakultät für Bauingenieurwesen und Geodäsie der Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover zur Erlangung des Grades Doktor-Ingenieur - Dr.-Ing. - genehmigte Dissertation von Clemens Janek Hübler M. Sc. 2019 Hauptreferent: Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Raimund Rolfes, Leibniz Universität Hannover Korreferent: Prof. John Dalsgaard Sørensen, M.Sc., Lic.techn., B.Com. Aalborg University Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 11. Januar 2019 Abstract Offshore wind energy plays an important role in the successful implementation of the energy transition. However, without subsidies, it is not yet sufficiently competitive compared to other renewables or conventional fossil fuels. This is why offshore wind turbines have to be structurally optimised with regard to economic efficiency. One possibility to significantly increase economic efficiency is to improve the reliability or at least to assess present reliability levels precisely. For an accurate reliability assessment during the design phase, probabilistic analyses based on time-domain simulations have to be conducted. In this thesis, a methodol- ogy for a comprehensive probabilistic design of offshore wind turbines with special focus on their substructures is developed and applied. All investigations are based on time-domain simulations. This leads to more accurate results compared to semi-analytical approaches that are commonly used for probabilistic modelling at the expense of higher computing times. In contrast to previous probabilistic analyses, considering only particular aspects of the probabilistic design, this work defines a comprehensive analysis that can be split up into the following seven aspects: deterministic load model, resistance model (failure modes), uncer- tainty of inputs, design of experiments, sensitivity analysis, long-term extrapolation/lifetime distribution, and economic effects.

The LSPs can play an important role in investigating and solving specific challenges for the IoT industry and promoting innovation that is related to specific activities such as 1) the applied standards framework, 2) deployments, 3) technological and business model validation and 4) acceptability. The main objective of this deliverable is to briefly present the global dynamics and landscapes of IoT SDO, Alliance and OSS initiatives, which can be used: 1) to leverage on existing IoT standardization, industry promotion and implementation of standards and protocols, 2) as input for LSP standards framework and gap analysis and 3) to provide a guideline for the proponents of future project proposals associated with future IoT related calls financed by the EC on the positioning of these initiatives within these landscapes.
