Challenge and objective

  • To demonstrate a voltage regulation service at the DSO's control centre based on control of PV generation.  

Work performed

  • Emulation of a cyber-physical power system with a control centre using the Norwegian Smart Grid laboratory setup. The communication system of the setup uses 5G technology.
  • Tested new methods for monitoring and control the distribution grid from DSO's control centre.

Significant results

  • The laboratory setup has wide area communications, sensor emulation, operational technology that will be used for control and operation from the DSO's future control centre.

Impact for distribution system innovation

  • Gained knowledge on the future operation and control of the active distribution grid.
