Research Infrastructure

RSE

Experiment Realisation

The experiment is realized by performing a simulation in Matlab.

All the necessary control functions are modeled with a script in Matlab. The local services market model is developed in Simulink and a realistic LV network with high penetration of PV systems is implemented in SimPowerSystem using phasor models. All the simulation components are managed by a master algorithm which setup all the experiment configurations (input, models parameters, etc.).

Experiment Setup

The whole experiment is performed in Matlab environment. In particular, the local services market model is developed in Simulink, the LV network model in SimPowerSystem while the control functions of the components are .m file integrated with SimPowerSystem.

In order to validate the indirect congestion management, the flexibility provided by the local services market should be enough to avoid grid congestions.

Experimental Design and Justification

All the load consumption and PV generations will be varied following different pre-defined profiles (see TC24.TS02) to create congestion issues in order to evaluate the flexibility provided by the local services market.

Precision of equipment and measurement uncertainty

Since the experiment is a simulation, this is not available.

Storage of experiment data

All variable states are saved in a .mat file with a time-step of 15 minutes.
