Архитектура на интерфейса TSO-DSO-Потребител за предоставяне на иновативни мрежови услуги за ефективно енергийно система (INTERRFACE)

With the increasing number of renewable energy sources, the growing interconnection of European grids, the development of local energy initiatives, and the specific requirements of Transmission System Operators (TSOs) – the collaboration of Distribution System Operators (DSOs), as specified in various network codes and guidelines, TSOs and DSOs face new challenges that will require greater coordination. The European Commission has adopted legislative proposals for the energy market that promote collaboration between network operators, as they provide balancing, congestion management, and ancillary services. The measures promote the procurement of services at both the transmission and distribution levels, considering that this will allow for more efficient and effective grid management, increase demand response levels, and enhance the capacity of renewable generation. TSOs and DSOs must already define the services they wish to obtain in collaboration with market participants, and must create ways to procure them in a coordinated manner. Digitalization is a key driver for coordination and active system management in the electricity grid, enabling TSOs and DSOs to optimize the use of distributed resources and ensure cost-effective and secure electricity supply, while also enabling end-users to become active market participants, supporting self-generation and providing demand flexibility. To support this transformation, the INTERRFACE project will design, develop, and operate an integrated pan-European architecture for network services, which will act as an interface between the energy system (TSO and DSO) and customers, enabling seamless and coordinated operation of all stakeholders in the use and delivery of common services. Modern digital tools based on blockchain and big data management will provide new opportunities for participation in the electricity market, thereby engaging customers in the proposed market structures, which will be designed to utilize distributed energy resources.
