The future-proof power grid cannot be built with the mere use of known technology. New solutions will also have to be developed. If electricity production is to be fossil-free, this requires many, and many different, renewable energy sources, and this places new and stricter demands on the balance between consumption and production. There is also a need for solutions that can accommodate and support the decentralised electricity production, so that energy can easily be generated and consumed locally, thus supporting local supply security.
Renewable energy sources, which are increasingly dependent on the weather, also require new solutions for control and storage. Finally, there is the coupling of the various sectors to the power grid, which generally has to take place without compromising critical infrastructure, reducing voltage quality, or reducing security of supply. So there is indeed a need for innovative thinking.
Standardization plays a significant role in this, as standards specify common requirements for e.g. the solutions as well as the integration between systems and the different producers. Some of the standards are known, but there is also a need for new standards. Consequently, Danish Standards has a strong focus on this crucial area and helps to facilitate the development so that this can be executed as soon as possible.
infrastructure that creates a sustainable framework for the green transition that not only meets current sector requirements, but which is also equipped for future challenges and needs.
