TIGON
Integration of continuous current smart grids into the actual grid.
Description
The proliferation of renewable energies and the electric charges that operates with continuous current originates a growing interest in electric grids that operates with continuous current. This is due to the higher efficacy, security,flexibility and feasibility that grids have than those ones that operates with alternate current.
TIGON project looks for the integration of the continuous current smart grids into the actual grids based on alternate current, so that, they will be able to supply auxiliary services to the traditional grid. The developed solutions will be proved in two demonstrators located in France and Spain.
Objectives
- Facilitate and boost the development of AC/DC hybrid electric grids for adjust the increasing presence of renewable energies at the european grids.
- Improve the monitoritation, controllability and protection of AC/DC hybrid grids.
- Develop a protection system against cyberattacks and similar threaten that function in real time.
- Demonstrate the capacities of the developed systems and reach TRL 7/8
- Study the replication potential of the developed solutions.
- Make known to the general public, affected companies and organisms the benefits of the AC/DC hybrid grids.
Actions
- Develop the physic architecture of a hybrid grid.
- Develop systems for the monitoring, control and management of the hybrid grid.
- Demonstrate the capacity of the hybrid grid in a situation of renewable energy high penetration and in a situation of flexibility of the configuration of the hybrid grid.
- Study of the replication of the results in other sectors and situations.
- Study the exploitation strategies and development of business models.
Expected Results
- Intelligent transfromer of solid status.
- DC/DC convertes of SiC.
- MVDC photovoltaic plant.
- WAMPAC (wide are monitoring, protection and control) system for hybrid grids.
- Management system of the intelligent energy.
- Support system for the decision making for the planification and desgin of hybrid grids.
- Defense system against cyberattacks.

Smart grids projects:
iAMP_Hydro
iAMP-Hydro aims at improving the operation of existing hydropower plants (HPP) through the development of digital solutions which will be integrated into an intelligent Asset Management Platform (iAMP)
D-HYDROFLEX
D-HYFROFLEX seeks research into technological innovations in hydropower plants in search of improved efficiency and sustainability and hydropower competitiveness in modern electricity markets. The project will develop tools for the digital renovation of existing hydroelectric plants based on sensors, digital twins, artificial intelligence, hydrolyser modelling and image processing.
SINNOGENES
SINNOGENES project aims to develop the Storage INNOvations (SINNO) energy toolkit, a complete framework of methodologies, tools and technologies that will enable the grid integration of innovative storage solutions beyond the state-of-the-art, while demonstrating sustainability, technical performance, lifetime, nondependency on location geogrpahical particularities and cost.
PISTIS
PISTIS brings forward a reference federated data sharing/trading and monetisation platform for secure, trusted and controlled exchange and usage of proprietary data assets and data-driven intelligence.
CERFLEX
CERFlex project consist on research in development and TIC solutions implementation moods that help to the deployment in a new concept of energy communities, especially focus on rural environment, facilitating a decentralized management of the energy interchange, the maximum utilisation of the renewable resources and a sustainable consume of the available resources.
AGISTIN
AGISTIN will enable industrial users to rapidly deploy renewable energy through advanced integration of innovative energy storage technologies. The rapid decarbonisation of industry through electrification, the growth of renewables and the need for grid stability represents a unique opportunity for new forms of storage and schemes for grid integration.
