| Objectives | The project system use network data to perform analysis and create a generator curtailment schedule. The system will then use this schedule to issue two LV G59 generators with disaggregated curtailment setpoints. This setpoint will be sent to Hitachi DSR system that has been developed as art of the ERDF project, in order to notifyof the generator curtailment.A recommendations report for wider rollout of ANM connections for LV generators will be developed using the technical and commercial issues identified during the development of the system and trials.NB.Hitachi has installed several commercial PV sites as well as controllable demand appliances on the Isles of Scilly and is creating a DSR system as part of its ERDF Smart Energy Islands project. In the Smart Energy Isles project, our system will issue Hitachis DSR system with a signal when curtailing generators. The scope of the project is to trial the capability of curtailing LV generators based on real-time network constraints and to explore the policies required to enable those generators to take part in ANM in a Business As Usual (BAU) situation. Deliver a system that can issue disaggregated curtailment setpoints to LV generators. Deliver a recommendations document detailing how ANM connections could be offered to LV generators. Document the requirements that would allow multiple disparate LV generators to be modelled as a virtual power plant (VPP). | |
