Kenis, Michiel (author), Bruninx, K. (author), Delarue, Erik (author)Flow-based market coupling is a critical element of the electricity market in Europe. Transmission System Operators determine the commercial transmission capacity that can be implicitly traded in a zonal day-ahead market. However, this entails a trade-off: higher commercial transmission capacities increase market efficiency, affecting the...journal article 2024

Hennig, R.J. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author)Electrification of energy end-uses brings an increasing load on electric distribution grids with load peaks that can cause network congestion. However, many new end-uses like electric vehicles, heat pumps, and electrified industrial processes have some flexibility to move their power consumption away from peak times. Congestion management...journal article 2024

Pecorari, N. (author), Rinaldi, M. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Our cities are growing at an unprecedented pace. The flexible use of metropolitan infrastructures is the key to maintaining, if not increasing, the current quality of life. The combined use of geo-fence technology and connected vehicles can be the tool to achieve this flexibility. In this paper, we take a first step in the evaluation of the...conference paper 2023

Hennig, R.J. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author)Increasing peaks from high-power loads such as EVs and heat pumps lead to congestion of electric distribution grids. The inherent flexibility of these loads could be used to resolve congestion events. Possible options for this are smart network tariffs, market-based approaches, and direct control of flexible loads by the network operator. In...journal article 2023

Ovaere, Marten (author), Kenis, Michiel (author), Van den Bergh, Kenneth (author), Bruninx, K. (author), Delarue, Erik (author)Since 2015 available cross-border transmission capacity is determined using flow-based market coupling (FBMC) in the day-ahead electricity markets of Central Western Europe. This paper empirically estimates the effect of introducing FBMC on day-ahead electricity price convergence and cross-border exchange volumes. In the month following the...journal article 2023

Hekkelman, B. (author)We consider energy systems in the built environment. With the transition to a more sustainable, distributed, and 'smart' energy system, such local grids are undergoing significant changes. Among other developments, the new role of end-users as 'prosumers' - users that can either produce or consume power depending on the situation - is turning...doctoral thesis 2022

van Dijk, Bob (author)Rapid intake of intermittent generation units, more decentralised production and electrification of demand impose serious challenges on transmission- and distribution electricity grids. Part of this challenge is an increasing amount of congestion on the grids. The Dutch redispatch market for congestion management needs to be adapted to include...master thesis 2022

Viebahn, Jan (author), Naglic, Matija (author), Marot, Antoine (author), Donnot, Benjamin (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author)Given the increasing need to meet the new operational requirements of power systems and prepare for the future, adaptation of cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in the operational processes is paramount to timely meet the challenges. The focus of this paper is on applying AI in power system operations, in particular for the...conference paper 2022

Hekkelman, B. (author), la Poutré, J.A. (author)We consider network flow congestion management modelled after electricity distribution networks. The desired consumption or production of the agents that populate such networks are determined by a higher-level (e.g. national) market mechanism, but this can lead to congestion locally. We first consider congestion solutions in the form of...conference paper 2022

Krabbenborg, L.D.M. (author), Molin, E.J.E. (author), Annema, J.A. (author), van Wee, G.P. (author)Tradable credits for congestion management are a novel policy concept that is receiving increased interest in transportation research. This interest is mainly driven by the belief that the concept can count on stronger social support and hence has a better prospect for implementation than charging-based instruments. This paper is the first to...journal article 2021

Najjar, Mohamed-Youssef (author)The optimal power flow (OPF) problem is a classic and widely-studied topic in the field of power systems.Its purpose is to minimize the running costs of a power system by determining the optimal operating points,while respecting a set of physical constraints. While most power systems are currently controlled by a centralcoordinator, there is...master thesis 2020

Poplavskaya, K. (author), Totschnig, Gerhard (author), Leimgruber, Fabian (author), Doorman, Gerard (author), Etienne, Gilles (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)The zonal electricity market design in the Central Western European electricity market relies on redispatching generation units after market closure to manage congestion within bidding zones, while congestion between the zones is handled using flow-based market coupling. The combination of internal congestion in the meshed European network...journal article 2020

Janssen, Suzanne (author), Fu, A. (author), Cvetkovic, M. (author), Palensky, P. (author)The rapid growth of rooftop solar, and on the rise technologies such as electric vehicles and heat pumps, is leading to congestion problems in low voltage distribution networks. If not dealt with, the congestion will prevent the installation of further units limiting the pace of the energy transition. Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are often seen...conference paper 2020

Janssen, Suzanne (author)In 2018 the Dutch government, businesses and other stakeholders started negotiating an agreement to combat climate change (het Klimaatakkoord). Energy consumption is changing and more Renewable Energy Sources (RES) are implemented. While these changes are ongoing, the Distribution System Operators (DSOs) must ensure no congestion occurs in the...master thesis 2019

Shafiepour, Kamdin (author)High penetration of rooftop PV generation in the distribution network increases the variability of power flows and the frequency of network and hence congestions occurs at various network locations of the network. Congestions have various defects such as it deteriorates network performance, power quality and therefore can lead to a shutdown by...master thesis 2019

Budez Vergara, Jonathan (author)The electrical network must have adequate capacity to avoid congestion for all but the highest load levels. The most common solution to manage this congestion is to gradually invest in new infrastructure. An alternative solution for congestion management is the use of flexible loads, or demand response. In order to determine the relative value...master thesis 2019

Renaud, Anneroos (author)The growing share of renewable electricity generation poses a balancing challenge on the electricity grid and thus increases probability of for congestion on the electricity grid. On the supply side, flexibility can be built into the system. One option for a market to avoid congestion is the redispatch market, which is the way of solving...master thesis 2019

Brouwer, Robin (author)Increased variable renewable energy sources penetration in The Netherlands require more flexibility that could be provided by distributed energy resources located at small end-users combined with demand response. Aggregators could act as intermediary entities to exploit the flexibility potential of small end-users and create value for...master thesis 2018

Eid, C. (author)The European policy focus on smart grids implies their development as an indispensable part of the future power system. However, the definition of a smart grid is broad and vague, and the actual implementation of a smart grid can differ significantly depending on the stakeholders involved. Smart electricity grids can be defined as electricity...doctoral thesis 2017
