Enhancing demand flexibility in the Nordic power system
The project aims to deepen the understanding of energy authorities and policymakers regarding the demand and supply of flexibility, as well as the development of
The Nordic power system is well integrated due to a long history of cross border cooperation on grid, operations, and market development. This has been a core prerequisite for the high level of renewable production, and it will continue to be so with a Nordic power system which is expected to be carbon-free around 2035/40.
Nordic power system is growing due to electrification and the amount of renewables are also growing at rapid speed. At the same time, our analyses have been showing and are also confirmed by other ones, that the volatility in the future system is increasing.
As the Nordic power system continues to achieve higher pene-tration levels of PEID, the stability of the power system is challenged. Although technological solutions such as the use of grid-forming inverters and methods to study and mitigate these stability challenges are being developed, they are not yet widely applied to larger power systems.
National scenarios show a huge growth in power demand and production in all the Nordic countries, with most of the new produc-tion being intermittent and connected to the grid by means of power electronics. The Nordic power system is well integrated due to a long history of cross border cooperation on grid, operations, and market development.
