In the two years since our last Demand Response Map was published, we have seen improvements in almost all of the countries analysed, but progress has been gradual. Markets are slowly being opened where they were once closed, the role of aggregation is becoming more defined, and market product requirements are becoming more accessible for Demand Response. However, there is still much work to be done and flexibility potential to be realised across the continent.

  • Exploiting Phasor Measurement Units for Enhanced Transmission Network Operation and Control
    BRUNEL UNIVERSITY EXPLOITING PHASOR MEASUREMENT UNITS FOR ENHANCED TRANSMISSION NETWORK OPERATION AND CONTROL A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Engineering This research programme was carried out in collaboration with National Grid by Phillip Michael Ashton Supervised by Prof. Gareth Taylor Brunel Institute of Power Systems Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering Brunel University, UK Abstract In order to achieve binding Government targets towards the decarbonisation of the electricity network, the GB power system is undergoing an unprecedented amount of change. A series of new technologies designed to integrate massive volumes of renewable generation, predominantly in the form of offshore wind, asynchronously connecting to the periphery of the transmission system, are transforming the re- quirements of the network. This displacement of traditional thermal generation is leading to a significant reduction in system inertia, thus making the task of system operation more challenging. It is therefore deemed necessary to develop tools and technologies that provide far greater insight into the state of the power system in real-time and give rise to methods for improving offline modelling practices through an enhanced understanding of the systems performance. To that extent PMUs are seen as one of the key enablers of the Smart Grid, pro- viding accurate time-synchronised measurements on the state of the power system, allowing the true dynamics of the power system to be captured and analysed. This thesis provides an analysis of the existing PMU deployment on the GB trans- mission system with a view to the future system monitoring requirements. A critical evaluation and comparison is also provided on the suitability of a Uni- versity based Low Voltage PMU network to further enhance the visibility of the GB system.
