- Power system stability due to decreasing inertia and system strength as a result of the phase-out of conventional generation.
- Power electronics integration due to the increase in renewables .
- Power-to-gas, power-to-heat, batteries and other storage systems.
- Development and maintenance of dynamic grid models and tools and methods.
- Studies to identify power system stability issues in the grid.
- Determination of mitigation measures to improve stability based on internal and external analysis.
- Policies related to power system stability and mitigation measures.
- Verification of dynamic models and behaviour for new generator and demand connections.
Further you will contribute to network development plans and network expansion projects (G0) in the Dutch transmission system and you will participate on behalf of TenneT in national and international working groups and study programs.
