As renewable energy production continues to grow, an EU initiative investigated how to integrate it into the power distribution grid without affecting reliability or the quality of supply.
The EU-funded IGREENGRID (Integrating renewables in the European electricity grid) project focused on results gained from major European distributed system operators (DSOs) in six demonstration projects. These projects concerned the integration of distributed renewable energy sources (DRESs) in low- and medium-voltage grids.
