Redispatch 2.0 - Essential Measures for the Smart Grid of Tomorrow

Free Webinar

Tuesday, December 15, 2020 | 11:00am–12:00am | Webinar Language: German

Forecasts that are as accurate as possible are essential for helping grid operators meet the new legal requirements for managing grid congestion (Redispatch 2.0), which take effect on October 1, 2021. While redispatching was previously required only for conventional power generation systems with more than 10 megawatts of capacity, the new requirements will also apply to systems for generating renewable power as well as energy storage systems and cogeneration plants with more than 100 kilowatts of capacity. Predicted load profiles for generation plants and electrical devices will be used to prepare grid analyses that can help identify congestion early on, allowing for preemptive measures to be taken. Such an approach requires uniform standards for data exchange as well as automated, digital data delivery, which presents a significant challenge for smaller distribution system operators in particular. In order to develop solutions such as a common software program, German grid operators are collaborating as part of the nationwide project “Connect+.”

In this webinar, a grid operator will show how Redispatch 2.0 can be implemented in the distribution grid. The firm FGH GmbH will highlight how R&D services in the areas of electrical energy supply can be put into practice and EnBW will present its NETZliveX Redispatch 2.0 solution, which supports data exchange with Connect+ and DA/RE. The webinar will be moderated by TransnetBW GmbH.

During the webinar participants can submit their questions to get them answered by the experts in the live Q&A. In addition, both the recording and the speakers' presentations are made available to all registrants after the webinar.

Our Guests

Stephan Brandt, Project Manager for operational planning processes in distribution networks, FGH GmbH

Stephan Brandt has been working in the department of grid integration of generation plants, storage facilities and charging points at the FGH since 2013 and took over the deputy department management in 2020. Currently, he is working on solution concepts for Redispatch 2.0 requirements as well as technical consulting for national and international network operators in the context of network integration of decentralized generation plants, storage facilities and charging infrastructure for electric vehicles.
Prior to that, he was responsible for a multi-year project on the technical evaluation and quality assurance of conversion measures within the framework of the System Stability Ordinance for several German transmission system operators.
Furthermore, during his time at the FGH, Mr. Brandt has assumed expert activities in the context of the evaluation of technical useful lives of secondary technology equipment, the simulation of electrical properties for grid connection testing, the analysis and optimization of reactive power flows in distribution grids as well as the design of protection concepts.
His practical experience is complemented by the supervision of various scientific theses in cooperation with the RWTH Aachen University.

Hybrid solar power plants are an emerging area in the energy sector, combining various technologies to provide more efficient and reliable power generation. With a close look on various case studies of hybrid solar power plants we will demonstrate that these systems are increasingly being used as viable solutions to meet growing energy demands, particularly in regions with variable weather conditions. By integrating solar installations with other energy sources, such as wind power or conventional power plants, a continuous power supply can be ensured, even when solar radiation fluctuates.

The continuous improvement of network development plans and flexibility strategies is crucial for addressing the challenges of grid congestion and ensuring effective capacity management. Innovative deployment strategies and business models promote the seamless integration of storage systems, which in turn enhances grid stability and optimizes energy management system costs. At the same time we look in this session at the dynamic landscape of large, grid-connected storage that requires careful consideration of integration timelines to ensure sustainable and future-proof energy utilization.

Hailed as the perfect solution for solar in the building environment for many years, only a very limited number of building integrated systems have been installed for various reasons. With the first cities, states and countries having passed laws for mandatory solar inclusion for new houses and leading global module manufacturers launching first BIPV products, it looks like the time has come for this to change.
