Grid compliance: a priority for every part of the power grid value chain

Grid code compliance is a priority for the power sector since regulations have an impact on the whole power generation landscape. Whether conventional power or renewable energy providers, all sectors are having to navigate complex regulatory landscapes to ensure compliance, avoid penalties and contribute to a stable and reliable power grid.

The role of grid code compliance across sectors

renewable-generation
Traditional and renewable power generation

Traditional (coal, natural gas, nuclear) and renewable (solar, wind, hydro) power plants must ensure their equipment and operations comply with grid codes to maintain grid stability and reliability

hydrogen-production
Hydrogen production and integration

As hydrogen production, especially green hydrogen, scales up, it needs to be integrated into the existing grid infrastructure. This requires compliance with grid codes to ensure safe and efficient operation

Electricity production
Industrial and commercial consumers

Large industrial and commercial consumers of electricity must comply with grid codes, especially if they have on-site generation or participate in demand response programs.

energy-storage
Energy storage

Facilities that store energy, such as battery storage systems, must comply with grid codes to ensure they can effectively balance supply and demand and provide grid stability.

Equipment manufacturers

Several equipment manufacturers are significantly impacted by grid code compliance regulations, particularly those involved in the energy sector.

  • Synchronous machines
  • Turbine / Engine controls
  • Excitation systems
  • Plant transformers
  • Protection systems
  • Plant controls

By releasing on the market grid-code compliance-ready equipment, manufacturers can demonstrate their commitment to industry standards and best practices, simplify their customer grid code compliance process, and increase their reputation.
