Maximum feasible penetration of non-programmable RES generation in power systems
​The large-scale development of renewable sources, with particular reference to wind, in the generation mix might introduce several problems for a secure management of the power system, due to a higher generation uncertainty, thus requiring careful investigations by the responsible for planning and the involved system operators. In this context, CESI has developed a thorough […]

Field measurements and frequency domain modeling of a 400 kV underground cable line
The length of XLPE-insulated underground cable lines in the European HV / EHV network is experiencing a fast growth due to the increasing number of submarine interconnections and suitability to be installed also in urban area with nil visual impact after installation. Use of cable stretches in combination with overhead lines has proven to be […]

Market integration and storage resources optimization to mitigate the risks of “over-generation” from non-programmable RES: the Italian prospective
​Italy has witnessed a very massive penetration of photovoltaic and wind generation in the recent years. The largest share of wind plants is connected to the transmission grid and the total power installed exceeded 8.5 GW at the end of 2013. Photovoltaic plants are generally connected to the distribution grid and at the end of […]
