Cyber-physical system using modified WN/SN transformer automatic voltage control systems and innovative control algorithms based on machine learning to increase the absorption of energy introduced into the nN network by PROsumers (ARN-Pro)

The aim of the project will be to develop a pilot innovative cyber-physical system, which will be part of the distribution network of ENEA Operator (EO). The cyber-physical system will cover part of the Lubuskie Voivodeship, where there are 29 stations of Main Power Points (GPZ) with 54 transformers equipped with ARN systems that supply electricity to over half a million customers. The identified main research areas that can contribute to technical and economic optimisation and increase flexibility in network infrastructure management include: • analysis of the possibility of using ARN at the WN/SN voltage level to regulate voltage at selected points of the nN network and the use of machine learning and knowledge-based predictive methods (OrigAMI historical data) to develop ARN settings that take into account voltage changes in the nN network, which will allow for the improvement of voltage parameters, enabling the introduction of energy generated by prosumers into the nN network in the conditions of the highest sunlight in areas with the largest share of prosumer generation, • multi-criteria technical and economic analyses of the pilot cyber-physical system, which will form the basis for the development of technical models for the implementation of ARN control algorithms in the EO network. As part of the project, industrial research was planned (Zad. 1 and 2) and development work (d. 3 and 4) within which the design, construction and testing of the system was planned. The project will start at V TRL and end at VIII, which means that the research and demonstration of the final form of technology has been completed and the target level of technology has been reached and can be applied under the conditions foreseen for it. As part of the project, it is also planned to improve the competences of the Applicant's staff and managers and to acquire new knowledge and skills supporting the implementation of tasks under the R&D module.
