The results of the SINCRO.GRID - Phase 1 project

The SINCRO.GRID - Phase 1 project demonstrated how distribution and transmission system operators could enable their existing infrastructure to accept greater quantities of electricity from renewable sources while continuing to ensure a reliable electricity supply. Such integration has also increased synergies and the economic efficiency of the investment.

    INTRODUCED BY THE SINCRO.GRID PROJECT

    Compensation devices for reactive power control

    ELES and HOPS installed three variable shunt reactors, two static VAR compensators, and a mechanically-switched capacitor with a damping network. By installing those devices, they achieved the goals of voltage profile control and the possibility of voltage regulation in the electricity systems of both Slovenia and Croatia.

    ABOUT THE PROJECT
    Compensation devices for reactive power control (pic1)
    Six compensation devices were installed in Slovenia and Croatia. READ MORE

    Battery energy storage systems

    Two battery energy storage systems were installed in Slovenia to facilitate the transition to future electricity systems in which electricity production from dispersed renewables and the active participation of consumers in the energy market will prevail.

    ABOUT THE PROJECT
    Battery electricity storage systems (pic2)
    Two battery storage units with a total capacity of 10 MW (50 MWh) were installed within the scope of the project. READ MORE

    Dynamic Thermal Rating System

    The purpose of the system for real-time and short-term forecast assessment of grid operating limits (SUMO), which is entirely the result of Slovenian knowledge, is to assess the marginal capacities of transmission grid components with the help of dynamic thermal rating, and in this way provide for better utilisation of transmission lines.

    ABOUT THE PROJECT
    Dynamic Thermal Rating (pic3)
    The innovative weather stations were installed on the 12 transmission lines in Slovenia and Croatia. READ MORE

    Virtual Cross-border Control Centre (VCBCC)

    The Virtual Cross-Border Control Centre enabled better observability of energy networks and more accurate forecasting of renewable energy source production.This is the first case in Europe where neighbouring transmission system operators have joined forces in regulating and optimising the voltage in their networks.

    ABOUT THE PROJECT
    Virtual Cross-border Control Centre (VCBCC) (pic4)
    New ICT services were established in substations and control centres. READ MORE
