Project description
In our doctoral project, we focus on developing new system services for the future electric power grid. With the electric power grid rapidly transitioning towards 100% renewable energy production, the demand for new innovative system service design is increasing. The main purpose of the project is to develop system services for the electric power grid, such as voltage and frequency control. By designing the technical functionality and developing evaluation and compensation models, you will contribute to creating incentives to ensure an adequate supply of system services from various resources in the grid.
The energy sector is evolving, and this is your opportunity to be part of shaping it. By developing the system services of the future, you will play a pivotal role in enabling the transition to 100% renewable energy. The project is carried out in collaboration with other doctoral candidates, researchers, and our funding partners, creating a unique environment for you to acquire new knowledge and exchange ideas in the field of system services. You will be part of both national and international cooperation efforts aimed at creating a better future for generations to come.
