System Operation: Innovation Landscape Briefs

• IRENA's Innovation Landscape report highlights technologies in system procedure that allow the integration of greater shares of variable eco-friendly power generation.

These advancements, aimed at assisting in dispersed operation, fitting unpredictability and aid to minimizing the demand for grid reinforcement, are explored better in particular briefs:

Using dispersed energy sources

Cutting-edge ways to operate the distribution grid as well as help with markets for distributed generation:

• Future duty of distribution system drivers
• Co-operation between transmission and circulation system operators

Accommodating uncertainty

New procedures that boost electrical power system versatility:

• Advanced forecasting of variable eco-friendly power generation
• Cutting-edge procedure of pumped hydropower storage

Delaying grid support

Cutting-edge strategies to reduce variable renewable resource (VRE) curtailment, convenience blockage and lower grid support requires:

• Online high-voltage line
• Dynamic line rating
