European Union backs research for the integration of wind power energy in the grid

The European Union, in its support for the integration of renewable energies in the European high-voltage grid, especially that of wind power origin, has launched the Twenties Project.

The aim of this pioneering initiative is to significantly develop the testing and implementing of new technologies in order to increase a safe wind power generation within the European electricity system. Gathering 26 partners (TSOs, electrical companies, institutions) from 10 different member states, the Twenties project will last 3 years and has a total budget of 60 million euros, of which 32 million will be financed by the European Union.(...)

Coreso, a successful industrial cooperation for a better European security of electricity supply

After more than one year of operations, Coreso has proved a high reliability and expertise. Its added value to prevent major incidents has been confirmed.

Coreso significantly increased operational coordination between TSOs in the Central Western European (CWE) region in answer to new developments. Power flows become more and more variable due to the development of renewable energy, which is intermittent by nature, and the growth of cross-border exchanges in the European electricity market.(...)

Coreso launches around the clock operations

Coreso, the first European technical coordination centre, launches today its around the clock operations, providing Transmission System Operators (TSOs) network security analyses and monitoring of the grid every 15 minutes, 24/7, thus confirming the commitment taken at the start of its day-ahead activities in February 2009.

This extension of activities to a continuous basis will increase the security of supply in a context characterized by a high variability of power flows due to the development of renewable energy and cross-border exchanges in the European electricity market. Since the start of its operational activities on February 16th, Coreso has been supplying the control centres of the relevant TSO’s with forecasts about the security of the grid in North Western Europe, by performing security analyses, simulating various scenarios and proposing sets of coordinated remedial actions that TSO’s can take to master the security of the electrical system in this area. So far, these daily activities had been focusing on the next day.(...)
