A Smart Grid simulation centre at the Institute for Energy and Transport — Integration of large amounts of offshore wind energy

摘要

In this paper the Smart Grid simulation centre facilities of the Institute for Energy and Transport (IET), Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission's (EC) are presented, providing a specific application of our work. The Smart Grid Simulation Centre is intended to combine electrical power components and communication/control equipment with system simulation tools. In this way the Centre can test grid elements and evaluate different operation scenarios under various conditions. As a specific activity the cooperation in accessing multiterminal grids is described in this paper.
