Ensuring compliance with diverse and complex requirements is time-consuming and requires specialized skills.
ETAP Grid Code provides a much improved approach with build-in interconnection codes encompassing a broad range of performance criteria, including voltage and frequency ride-through, active and reactive power control and dynamic support under abnormal conditions. The requirements are applied at both Point of Measurement and common coupling of individual inverter-based resources.
ETAP GridCode utilizes a progressive electrical digital twin with automated analysis, predictive calculations, network optimization, validation processes, and intelligent power plant control hardware to ensure local grid code compliance.
The webinar is an opportunity to discover how the features in this release of GridCode contribute to better and faster grid code compliance evaluation in an automated fashion, including real and reactive power capability, and harmonic distortion and resonance. By carefully evaluating the impact of new generation on the grid, you’ll learn how to define and produce compliance studies that help protect the system, enable renewable energy growth, and promote cost-effective grid development.
As the global power sector rapidly transitions toward sustainable energy, the importance of grid code interconnection studies becomes paramount. The manual analysis of grid codes can be time-consuming, involving intricate scenarios and strict compliance. ETAP Grid Code is a model-driven solution that includes software tools and control hardware to ensure local grid codes or standards compliance throughout the power system design and operations lifecycle. Additionally, ETAP’s unique Power Plant Controller (ePPC) along with its digital twin, ensures accurate evaluation and study of the system's actual performance to improve compliance and minimize risk.
Today’s power systems depend on renewable energy resources to meet their load demand and are typically interconnected through inverters. This webinar demonstrates how inverter-based resources are modeled for short circuit studies. It will also review various dynamic modeling approaches offered by ETAP and discuss merits and limitations of each approach.
