The Osmose project is an EU-funded H2020 project responding to the call for a ‘Demonstration of system integration with smart transmission grid and storage technologies with increasing share of renewables’.
The project aims to develop flexibilities that can be used for better integration of RES. The chosen approach is global, as it considers at the same time the increased need for flexibilities in the system (mainly improved balancing of supply and demand in electricity markets, provision of existing and future system services, and enabling dynamic control of electricity flows) and the sources of flexibilities (RES, demand-response, grid, and new storage systems). The selected global approach addresses all system requirements to capture the synergies offered by the different solutions in order to avoid stand-alone solutions that might be less efficient in terms of overall performance. For example, a storage operator plans to install batteries in order to provide balancing services. By locating the solution in a network-constrained area, the operator could at the same time contribute to congestion management and thereby also reduce costs for society.
