Abstract. The European Academy of Wind Energy (eawe), representing universities and institutes with a significant wind energy programme in 14 countries, has discussed the long-term research challenges energy. In contrast to agendas addressing short- medium-term activities, this eawe document takes longer-term perspective, scientific knowledge base that is required develop beyond applications today tomorrow. other words, agenda driven by problems curiosity, basic fundamental 11 areas, ranging...
Transforming the existing power generation to renewable, distributed implicates an increase in complexity for control of overall system. We propose a method launch products self-organized coalitions small active units grid at markets trading as well ancillary services. Our concept combines integration restrictions into proactive scheduling with provision services, and additionally provides reactive power, e.g. case service activation.
The complex nature of cyber-physical energy systems (CPES) makes systematic testing new technologies for these setups challenging. Co-simulation has been identified as an efficient and flexible test approach that allows consideration interdisciplinary dynamic interactions. However, basic coupling simulation models alone fails to account many the challenges simulation-based multi-domain such expert collaboration in planning. This paper illustrates extended CPES environment based on...
On European level the EU Mandate M/490 including final reports of respective working groups are gaining momentum in community. Two mandate's core results deal with architecture description and use case management. As a response to mandate, among other deliverables, Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) has been developed provide framework for architectures. Additionally, templates as well comprehensive methodology management have specified. The focus this contribution is demonstrate how SGAM,...
Simulations become more and crucial in the field of future energy systems. This is caused by increasing complexity systems that consist a variety subsystems such as supply infrastructures, production, consumption, markets, communication, meteorology etc. Co-simulation tools provide possibility to combine models these run them coordinated simulation. However, simulations complex, making it improbable user simulation same person develops system. To facilitate communication between users...
Smart Grids rely on the use of ICT for managing large numbers active components and sensors to keep demand generation electricity at equilibrium while operating multiple resources within their operational limits. Due distributed nature these resources, heterogeneity as well sheer number, is a challenging task. Control strategies novel paradigms need be developed thoroughly evaluated through extensive simulations. In order yield scientifically sound reliable results, simulations have valid...
Renewable energy sources are key enablers to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and cope with the anthropogenic global warming. Their intermittent behaviour limited storage capabilities present challenges power system operators in maintaining high level of quality reliability.

Previous work presented various methods operate highly interconnected grids...
The gradual deployment of intelligent and coordinated devices in the electrical power system needs careful investigation interactions between various domains involved. Especially due to coupling ICT systems a holistic approach for testing validating is required. Taking existing (quasi-) standardised smart grid test specification methods as starting point, we are developing validation that allows very flexible way assessing level aspects by types experiments (including virtual, real, mixed...
Although, a variety of established tools for analysis power systems already exists, it is in the medium term very unlikely that one these alone will provide all functionalities and models are required to simulate future Smart Grids its facets. This mainly due high number Grid use cases, actors, technologies be integrated not known from other industries so far. Accordingly, mixture various different required. These, again, have composed cases specific complex system-wide scenarios. Therefore,...
