Grid Consulting

Analysis, modeling and design of power systems tailored to your needs

Reach out to our consultants today

Transmission grids must be planned thoroughly to meet future requirements. But creating a digital and sustainable grid comes with challenges. Be it the increasing infeed of renewables which creates higher volatility in the grids, the decreasing fossil power generation which leads to frequency fluctuations and lower inertia or the increasing grid complexity that demands for more controllability of the power flows. We are here to support you with our expertise in grid consulting and strategic grid planning - using our proven data- and simulation-driven decision approach.

Transmission Grid Planning

Flexible and secure operations is a key element of the energy transition. A thorough and detailed planning of the transmission grid is the right way to ensure a reliable and economic design of future power systems.

HVDC / FACTS Design & Performance Assessment

HVDC and FACTS solutions increase the efficiency of the transmission grid, as well as enhancing the stability of power systems. A proper design and performance evaluation is needed to ensure optimal operation under various conditions.

Grid Access & Grid Code Compliance

Renewable energy will be a key element of power systems in the upcoming decades. It is essential to consider grid access and compliance to grid codes to guarantee secure access to new generation and reliable operation of the grid.

Digitalization Strategies

Digitalization enables a significantly enhanced planning and management of complex transmission systems. Identifying the right value-add use cases is key to maximize return on investment.

Renewable & Storage Integration

Integration of renewables together with storage supports reliability and resilience of decarbonized power systems. Nevertheless, an exhaustive understanding of new technologies and its interaction with the grid becomes vital in a successful implementation.

Industrial Electrification

Operational conditions for industrial applications can vary significantly from public grids. Customized electrification concepts are required, especially when considering new technological trends such as large electrolyzers.

Papiya Dattaray, Network Studies Expert

"The future of the grid is a complex blend of advanced technology, consumer participation and increased cross border interconnection to achieve a grid with flexible bulk power transfers across continents."

Alvaro Hernandez Manchola, Network Studies Expert

"I am motivated by providing our customers optimized solutions to help them integrate state of the art equipment in the electrical transmission system. By doing so, we contribute to their carbon neutral goals."

Birgit Alt, Network Studies Expert

"Developing technical and conceptual answers to the key challenges of the energy transition, together with a very diverse, experienced, highly motivated and flexible team, motivates me every day."
