Robust HVDC Grids
The development of robust High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) grids is essential for integrating large-scale renewable energy resources into the power system. At the same time, this transition introduces new challenges, including increased system dependency and greater vulnerability to high-impact events
Supporting Resilient AC/DC Grid Operation
At EnergyVille, we investigate how to improve the resilience of future AC/DC power systems. A key research focus is bridging the gap between steady-state optimisation and dynamic simulations. Combining these perspectives enables more informed decision-making.
Developing Operational Strategies
Our research includes the formulation, evaluation and implementation of operational strategies tailored to resilient AC/DC grid operation. These strategies help system operators manage increasingly complex and interconnected power networks.
Enhancing Situational Awareness
We also develop tools that improve situational awareness and resilience assessment across different operational time horizons.
Designing Resilient Grid Topologies
In addition, we evaluate different grid topologies based on their resilience characteristics. This work helps identify network configurations that can support a robust, reliable and sustainable power transmission infrastructure for the future.
