2020 PES ISGT Europe 10/28 Ancillary Services Provided by Power-Electronics Interfaced Distributed Renewable Energy Sources Connected in Distribution Grids

Although power-electronics interfaced Distributed Renewable Energy Sources (PEI-DRES) are highly proliferated at distribution systems, their intermittent and inertia-less nature still prohibits the overall decommission of bulk synchronous generators (SGs), whose inherent properties are the basis of robust and stable transmission systems. Towards this direction, the increased controllability of PEI-DRES should be exploited so as they can provide Ancillary Services (AS) similarly to SGs. This panel session will provide a further insight on this topic through the ongoing research in the H2020 EU project EASY-RES.
