Webinar series OSMOSE/EU-SYSFLEX in June 2021



OSMOSE organises jointly with the EU-SysFLex project a series of 3 webinars to present and discuss their repsective activities and results.

The Three webinars are described below:

WEBINAR 1: HIGH RES SCENARIOS: FROM ADEQUACY TO STABILITY CHALLENGES AND NEW SOLUTIONS
15 June 2021, 10.00-11.30 AM CEST

In scenarios with high Renewable Energy Sources, ensuring a cost-effective adequacy between generation and demand and a stable power system will become challenging. In this webinar, the OSMOSE and EU-SysFlex Projects will present the scenarios they have considered and the key challenges identified. First, OSMOSE will present its new methods to define cost-effective mix of flexibilities and preliminary results. EU-SysFlex will complete this vision by highlighting long-term scarcities on adequacy and on frequency stability in their own scenarios. Finally, the two projects will present their demonstrators providing new frequency and stability services.

Agenda:

  • Introduction of the webinar and both projects: Marie-Ann Evans (EDF), Nathalie Grisey (RTE)
  • Topic 1: Long-term scenarios and adequacy challenges
    OSMOSE: Optimal mix of flexibilities: Jens Weibezahn (TUB)
    EU-SysFlex: Scenarios: Caroline Bono (EDF)
  • Topic 2: Frequency and stability challenges
    EU-SysFlex: Analysis of scarcities: Sheila Nolan (EirGrid)
    OSMOSE: Grid forming to ensure stability: Carmen Cardozo (RTE)
  • Topic 3: Demonstrations of new flexibility providers
    EU-SysFlex: VPP, provision of FCR by wind farms: Miguel Marques (EDP)
    OSMOSE: Provision of frequency and voltage regulation by wind farms: Alessio Siviero (Terna)
  • Q&A session moderated by John Lowry (EirGrid)

WEBINAR 2: IT CHALLENGES TO ACTIVATE AND MONITOR FLEXIBILITIES
16 June 2021, 10.00-11.30 AM CEST

To enable an efficient Energy Transition, it will be key to activate more flexibility sources fast and efficiently. There is thus a need to accelerate and standardize data exchanges between the different layers, components and stakeholders of the power system. In this webinar, OSMOSE will present the issues and solutions found it two of its demonstrators. The first one implements close to real time cross border exchanges between Italy and Slovenia. The second one demonstrates a new critical and extremely fast service : grid forming. EU-SysFlex will then present its recommendations for improved data exchanges through its conceptual model for private energy data management.

Agenda:

  • Introduction of the webinar and both projects: Marie-Ann Evans (EDF), Nathalie Grisey (RTE)
  • OSMOSE: Near real time platform to activate cross border flexibilities: Gregor Goricar (ELES)
  • EU-SysFlex: DSO led demonstration project
  • OSMOSE: Grid forming activation and KPIs: Mario Paolone (EPFL)
  • OSMOSE: Monitoring new ancillary services: Emeline Guiu (RTE)
  • EU-SysFlex: demonstration projects
  • EU-SysFlex: Conceptual model for private energy data management: Kalle Kukk (Elering)
  • Q&A session moderated by Nathalie Grisey (RTE)

WEBINAR 3: VALUE AND DEMONSTRATIONS OF FLEXIBILITY PROVISION BY DISTRIBUTED RESOURCES
17 June 2021, 10.00-12.00 AM CEST

Distributed resources will be key enablers of the Energy Transition and we need to foster their contribution to an efficient power system. In this webinar, the EU-SysFlex and OSMOSE projects will first introduce their work on the values of distributed flexibilities and will then present their demonstrators. The OSMOSE Portuguese demo will introduce its tool to support the DSO for an optimal planning of flexibilities. A roundtable will conclude the webinar to enable the speakers, TSOs and DSOs, to react on their respective works.

Agenda:

  • Introduction of the webinar and both projects: Marie-Ann Evans (EDF), Nathalie Grisey (RTE)
  • Topic 1: Value of distributed flexibilities
    OSMOSE: Modelling distributed flexibilities in 2030 market simulations: Giuditta Pisano (UNICA)
    EU-SysFlex: Challenges for TSO – DSO coordination when using distributed flexibility for system purposes: Helena Gerard (VITO)
  • Topic 2: Demonstrations
    EU-SysFlex: Portuguese demo: Susete Albuquerque (E-REDES)
    OSMOSE: Portuguese demo: A tool to support the DSO in the optimal planning of the flexibilities: Rui Pestana (REN)
    EU-SysFlex Italian demo: Simone Tegas (e-distribuzione)
    EU-SysFlex German demo: Maik Staudt (Mitnetz Strom)
  • Q&A session with guest Tommaso De Marco (Terna) and moderated by Helena Gerard (VITO)
