Real-Time Control Framework for Active Distribution Networks

This lecture presents a real-time control framework for active distribution networks, focusing on the GridSteer autopilot system that efficiently manages grid resources by moving electrons, optimizing consumption, and utilizing flexible resources. The instructor explains the advantages of fast control strategies, the electrification of mobility's impact on power consumption, and the validation of the technology in real-scale microgrids. The lecture also covers the SCCER-FURIES project, demonstrating the technology's features in real-life experiments to ensure optimal use of flexible resources and provide ancillary services to the grid.
