Comprehensive Solutions & Services - Grid Code Compliance ABB - ABB Solutions for excitation and synchronization

Grid code compliance solutions and services

A solution for every challenge

Power plants and utilities preparing for the grid code compliance process are faced with many challenges.

Prove compliance of hardware and software equipment installed at the plant
Provide transmission system operators (TSOs) with validated simulation models, digital representations of the electrical behavior of the equipment used by TSOs to test grid reaction
Produce Grid Connection Studies, a report of high-fidelity computer-aided simulations, preliminarily demonstrating system compliance
Perform final compliance testing, comprising of complex and highly specific site tests to certify the actual compliance of the equipment with the specific grid code requirements
