SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATION
3

• TC Projects
• a work organisation set up by decision of the TC
  to deal with a subject in which CIGRE has a
  strategic interest, not specific to one SC,
• UHV
• The Network of the Future

4
TC Project The Network of the future Future
energy scenarios

• Different generation mix based on RES (connected
  at any voltage level), high efficiency thermal
  generation (macro or micro CHP units), storage
  (macro or micro, including PHEV1)
• Increased demand due to electricity becoming the
  main method of transporting energy
• Decreased demand due to actions to improve
  efficiency of energy consumption
• Greater control over demand by load management
  and control actions
• Growing exchange of cheaper or green electricity
  among electric systems at national, continental
  or inter-continental level

• PHEV Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

5
TC Project The Network of the future The
Electric Network of the Future

• Highly efficient, flexible and secure
• Able to exploit any type of sustainable
  generation, any size and any technology
• Able to support the interactivity of generators
  (at any voltage level) and end users through the
  liberalised market
• Able to incorporate transparency the information
  flow should be designed so users (in general) may
  take their decisions based on accurate and
  reliable information
• Able to provide interoperability at a continental
  level
• Able to securing long term strategic investments
  co-ordinated with investments on existing networks

6
TC Project The Network of the future Technical
issues to be investigated

• Demand
• Scenarios based on efficiency improvements and
  increasing use of electricity to transport energy
• Demand management, active demand (DMS, DR, DSI)
• Network architectures
• Expansion of existing network
• New AC-DC network and grid structures
• Off-shore/on-shore grids, design/security
  standards
• Aggregation of independent cells (microgrids,
  VPP, )
• Simulation, computation, optimization
• Modelling of new equipment
• Multi-objective and probabilistic methods, risk
  analysis methods
• System and operation planning in market context
• Energy balance forecasting
• Market
• Models and rules for active customer driven
  markets
• Future regulatory processes
• Incentive mechanisms for markets integration
• Stable rules for ensuring investments return

• EMS and control
• Secure operation of new architecture facing
  uncertainties, fluctuations, growing risk, etc
• Active Network Management.
• Communication/co-operation between TSOs
• Use of ICT integrated and 2-ways multi purpose
  comm. infrastructure
• Data exchanges among all market operators
• System and plants monitoring
• Demand management and generation (bulk and
  dispersed) dispatching
• Transparency for all users
• Materials
• Innovative sensors,
• HT superconductivity,
• Storage
• New functions and technologies to face growing
  penetration of intermittent generation
• Role of PHEV
• Substations
• Protectioncontrol arch, flexibility,
  reliability,.
• Off-shore substations
• Socio - Environmental

• Efficiency of Power Systems
• .clarify the concept of efficiency of power
  system and identify if there is a possible need
  for action within CIGRE

8
Efficiency of Power Systems
The role of Power Generation Efficiency and of
End Uses Efficiency, according to IEA, in the
reduction of GHG emissions source OECD/IEA
2008
9
Efficiency of Power Systems

• Current approach inside CIGRE
• at component or subsystem level, the energy
  efficiency is connected with the use of new
  materials and new technologies (e.g. ICT, power
  electronics)
• at a system level, the efficiency issues should
  be focused on
• Distribution networks optimization of network
  configuration, integration of DER and storage,
  advanced power and control electronics
• Electricity End Uses high efficiency
  electro-technologies (residential, commercial,
  industrial sectors), smart metering
• R, D D activities and Standardization should
  be the core actions
