H2020 FlexPlan Project Ended

Today H2020 FlexPlan project ended.

We are proud to be a part of the Pan-European team that work hard on this project in the last 3,5 years.

During this period, FlexPlan project established a new grid planning methodology and created a new innovative grid planning tool considering the opportunity to introduce new storage and flexibility resources in electricity transmission and distribution grids as an alternative to building new grid elements.

New methodology and tool were tested on six regional cases covering nearly the whole European continent, aimed at demonstrating the application of the tool on real scenarios as well as at casting a view on grid planning in Europe till 2050. In this way, the FlexPlan project tried to answer the question of which role flexibility could play and how its usage can contribute to reduce planning investments yet maintaining (at least) the current system security levels.
