IG07 - Research Group for Advanced Power Technologies and Systems

<< Research areas

Research Area: Optimal management of the prosumer power systems and the distibution power network in electricity market conditions

The Group conducts analyzes of the electricity market from the perspective of market participants, techno-economic analysis of generation and network facilities as well as optimization of modern power system management, earthing sizing,  measuring earthing resistance and soil resistance.

Technical solution: Optimization algorithm for maximizing the profit of a prosumer

Project title: Prosumer-rich distribution power network (ProPowerNet)

The developed optimization algorithm maximizes the profit of a prosumer taking into account different market conditions. The algorithm implements methods to eliminate uncertainties in predicting the electricity production from RES and electricity consumption of prosumers as well as integrating electric vehicles as control elements. The optimization algorithm aims to achieve the additional flexibility of prosumers, which will allow them to earn more money in the electricity market while maintaining a satisfactory comfort level.

Technical solution: Optimization algorithm for the optimal operation of a distribution network containing a significant number of prosumers

Project title: Prosumer-rich distribution power network (ProPowerNet)

The optimization algorithm aims to include prosumers and their devices (PV inverters and electric vehicle batteries), which, on the one hand, will make the distribution network operation more flexible and, on the other hand, will provide the prosumer with an additional opportunity to earn money (in addition to selling active power and participating in the ancillary services market).
