Modelling and Topology Optimisation of Medium Voltage Representative Networks for The Netherlands

The electrification of modern-day society keeps increasing and the demand for electricity grows along with it. Technologies like EVs and heat pumps are both part of the new types of demand, while PV systems and wind farms are meant to be our main new sources of generation. Contrary to traditional resources connected to the electricity network,...

Sustainable and Smart Distribution Networks: Topology Design

In this thesis the build plans for a new residential neighbourhood are used as a basis for a distribution network of the neighbourhood of the future. Data is used to simulate power flows and an analysis is given on the current method used by DSO's. Furthermore the discussion is opened to suggest different methods for constructing sustainable...
