Explore an advanced static frequency converter with integrated energy storage for pumped storage hydropower. This innovation enhances system flexibility and cost efficiency.
On May 28, 2024, the Horizon Europe project "Demonstration of Sustainable Hydropower Refurbishment" was launched in Brussels. Running for four years, ReHydro involves 22 partners from seven countries. The project aims to enhance hydropower's role in the electrical grid by upgrading plants to be more sustainable and flexible.
This work focuses on analysing the relationship between reserve energy demand and load, wind, and solar generation.
The use of a 15-minute solar forecast obtained from real-time sky video is analysed to minimize this overloading of the actuators.
The “RDV Experts” are events organised for members of the Hydro 21 association on key themes surrounding the hydraulics ecosystem.
Come and discover our hydraulic laboratory on the 3rd of April at the "RDV Experts" event, organised in collaboration with HYDRO 21.
Within the XFLEX HYDRO project, we have lead the work on market uptake, impacts, benefits & business model, and performed tests on a new turbine technology.
Pumped storage plants (PSPs) are considered as the most mature and reliable technology for bulk storage energy with low CO2 footprint.
From the 10th to the 11th of October, we will take part in the Business Hydro Meetings. One of the meetings’ key topics will be the hybridisation of hydroelectric power plants.
This week, several members of SuperGrid Institute are in Hannover to participate in the EPE’22 ECCE Europe conference.
