About the project

TenSyGrid will develop a toolbox with innovative stability analysis methods to facilitate the integration of 100 % renewable energy-based supply while maintaining a safe and stable operation of the power system.

The nature of the power system is radically changing due to the massive deployment of power electronics required for, among others, renewables integration into the grid. As a result, grid operators are faced with uncertainties when dealing with the new dynamics of low-inertia converter-dominated networks. These uncertainties essentially limit the integration of renewable energy sources due to the conservative limits needed as a precautionary measure to ensure a stable operation. Therefore, Tensors for System Analysis of Converter-dominated Power Grids (TenSyGrid) aims to develop a toolbox with innovative stability analysis methods to facilitate the integration of 100 % renewable energy-based supply while maintaining a safe and stable operation of the power system.
