Outline
  • Background
  • The objective of RELIANCE
  • Implementation of the activities
  • Consortium structure
  • Project management
  • Resources
  • Resulting impacts
  • Proposal agenda

3
Background (1/5)
  • EU directives have implemented the unbundling of
    electricity utilities
  • Central generation
  • TSOs
  • DSOs
  • Retailers
  • EU policies favour security of supply massive
    wind energy is being deployed in Europe (Denmark,
    Germany, Spain) with correlative impacts on the
    power transmission networks
  • Several DER technologies, using renewables or
    not, appear in line with the Kyoto protocol
    orientations (CO2 emissions)

4
Background (2/5)
  • Thus energy policy making in Europe put more and
    more stresses on all the EU power transmission
    networks

5
Background (3/5)
  • A number of previous or on-going EC funded
    projects have addressed some improvements of
    power network performances (Technologies,
    socio-economics, regulations, grid management)
    is the critical mass of RTD in Europe standing at
    the level of the challenges to be addressed by
    2020 ?
  • When compared to the RTD work being performed in
    the USA today, there is evidence that the
    European challenges ahead by 2020 are not yet
    faced by the proper amount of RTD work to bridge
    knowledge gaps that TSO are or will be facing

6
Background (4/5)
A greater attention ought to be paid to the
capabilities and performances of the future
power networks through coordinated and
increased RTD activities
Will there be enough researchers to perform
the work ?
7
Background (5/5)
  • Research coordination appears urgently needed
  • To identify who does what and where today to meet
    TSO operational challenges
  • To prioritize the 2020 power network performance
    challenges that will be faced inevitably by all
    the European TSOs
  • To prepare a RTD roadmap where the development
    risks ahead are measured collectively
  • A Europe wide effort can then be proposed on the
    RTD topics having a demonstrated European impact,
    together with funding schemes using
    public/private partnerships that have the support
    of national regulators

8
The objective of RELIANCE (1/2)
  • To consolidate the RTD needs and efforts
    required for the definition of a future European
    Transmission Network which optimises the
    reliability of power supply within growing
    European Distributed Generation and Renewable
    Energy sources.

9
The objective of RELIANCE (2/2)
  • How to facilitate efficiently the integration and
    convergence of RTD efforts on power transmission
    networks, to the benefits of a future European
    Transmission Network ?

10
Implementation (1/6)
11
Implementation (2/6)
  • It needs to be a 2 year, iterative approach,
    where
  • The first year of work allows to draw a draft
    of coordinated RTD actions with their funding
    requirements based on an appraisal of on-going
    research actions
  • A mid Term review with the EC and the Advisory
    Board launches
  • The second year fine tuning through a set of
    promotion events to have a majority of key
    players joining the future coordinated RTD plans

12
Implementation (3/6)
  • The convergence of this process is ensured by the
    partners committing on three intermediate
    results
  • Define what must be abandoned from the past
  • Agree on a common long term vision (the Future
    European Network capabilities and performances)
  • Set a series of intermediate milestones which
    have to be successfully passed to make the Future
    European Network a reality by 2020

17
Project management (1/2)
18
Project management (2/2)
  • Executive Board (SSB, 6 months, 2/3)
  • Defines and validates the expected outputs and
    exploitation targets, resolves any conflict
    raised by the STB,
  • Scientific and Technical Board (STB, three
    months, 2/3)
  • Ensures that the expected outputs are coherent
    and will be met on time (effectiveness), within
    preset funding (efficacy)
  • Resolves technical or budget conflict raised by
    WP leaders,
  • Work package leaders ( three months, 2/3)
  • Ensure that task leaders are effective, defines
    technical or budget solutions to solve conflicts
    between task coordinators,
  • Advisory board ( six months)
  • Advise, gives information and recommendations on
    issues or conflicts raised by the STB or any WP
    leader related to road maps validation,
    dissemination actions,

Resources (draft)

Resulting Impacts (1/5)
Technology based performance upgrades of the
Future European Transmission Network
  • Detail the technology-based performance upgrades
    of the European transmission networks required to
    meet Europes 2020 challenges.
  • a selected number of performance challenges
    around 2020 validated by the full chain of the
    electricity market players
  • functional requirements and then technological
    needs are described
  • the knowledge gaps that have to be filled through
    RTD tasks are identified

21
Resulting Impacts (2/5)
RTD roadmaps to bridge the existing RTD gaps
  • Delineate the RTD roadmaps which will support
    the future technology development work required
    to meet the above demands.
  • In depth analysis of the above RTD tasks
  • Production of a coherent set of road maps
    (intermediate goals, required funds, timing and
    interactions between work packages)

22
Resulting Impacts (3/5)
How to share the present and future RTD work ?
  • Define the share of RTD work within these RTD
    roadmaps whose effectiveness and efficiency at
    producing outputs will be optimized using a mid
    and long term coordination at a European level
    and at the various national levels.
  • Coordination involves a mix of national actions
    that have some European added value
  • and European actions that must meet European
    challenges that will grow as DER expand and
    market adapts.

23
Resulting Impacts (4/5)
Organisational and funding scenarios
  • Propose organisational and funding scenarios
    which will support the coordinated part of the
    work at a European level, in coherence with what
    will remain funded at national level.
  • What are the expected funding needs ( expected
    levels that are comparable to the ones being
    invested since 2002 by Federal and private funds
    in the USA) ?
  • What type of financing instruments at national or
    EU level are able to cope with such constraints?
  • What are the required new organisations and new
    public /private partnerships within short term
    perspectives to meet such financing challenges ?

24
Resulting Impacts (5/5)
A collective conviction to avoid RTD inaction
  • To reach a collective conviction about RTD
    performance and coordination of a majority of key
    players (TSO, research organisations, regulators
    and clients of the TSO) which will support the
    enhancement of an interconnected, optimized
    European power transmission network
  • How to manage Coordination at European level of
    research on power transmission networks which is
    a breakthrough approach per se?
  • How to take advantage of the monopolistic nature
    of TSOs to facilitate cooperation on long term
    issues?
  • What are the remaining barriers which will slow
    down the coordination process ?

Relevance (1/2)
  • Sustainable Energy Systems Electricity - call
    2004.ML
  • Transmission System Operators in Europe are
    facing similar networks problems, and, not being
    in competition between themselves, should welcome
    common solutions.
  • This Co-ordination Action should mainly assess
    the feasibility to setup an autonomous European
    Energy Grid Research Organisation, co-financed by
    TSOs (including non-EU members), the EU and other
    relevant actors.

27
Relevance (2/2)
  • Sustainable Energy Systems Electricity - call
    2004.ML
  • The Co-ordination Action should aim at agreeing
    on and co-ordinating common objectives and RDT
    needs for the future European Transmission
    Network identifying potential partners of the
    Organisation and potential financing tools and
    means defining the legal framework for the
    Organisation and its implementation plan.
  • The main objective of the Organisation should be
    to consolidate and coordinate the RD needs and
    effort for the design, development and validation
    of the concepts of the Future European
    Electricity Network, compatible with a large
    penetration of RES and DG, and to develop a
    dynamic simulator of the network, useful for
    testing as well as for the training grid
    operators.
