Developing the future electricity grid
Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands
* e-mail : M.Zeman@tudelft.nl
We are used to the continuous supply of electricity from a socket. Behind the socket lies a complex system of large power stations, high-voltage cables, transformers and a distribution network. Little has changed in the system over the last fifty years. The ambition to generate sustainable electricity from variable solar and wind energy has an immense impact on the electricity sector and requires major changes in our electricity grid and its operation.
