“…In response to particularly these developments, KEMA is operating the Flex Power Grid Laboratory (FPGLab, Figure 5). The FPGLab [11], [12] offers unique services for validating grid inverters and its control system by offering a predefined and programmable grid in the medium-voltage range under complex, realistic conditions in terms of voltage level (400V-24kV), power level (1MVA), fundamental frequency range (DC-75Hz) and harmonic frequency range (2400Hz bandwidth).…”

The paper focuses on the impact grid-connected, largescale photovoltaic (PV) has on the power system operation (stability, availability, reliability) and protection philosophy. It assesses qualification methods and standards of particularly the utility-interactive equipment (grid inverters), which directly influences the security of supply and power quality of the grid. Advanced emulation of grid conditions, including hardware in the loop testing scenarios, are proposed for the testing and validation of such grid equipment under realistic conditions(including worst-case). This to ensure suitability of the equipment for grid application and stable and safe grid operation.

Because of the increasing penetration o f dispersed generation and developments in the power demand, the power flows in LV and MV distribution grids will increasingly fluctuate in the near future. To manage these fluctuations while maintaining power quality and reliability, a Smart MV/LV-station has been designed by a Dutch consortium. A prototype of this station will be built and tested. Tests will take place both in the Flex Power Grid Lab in Arnhem (NL) and in a live test grid of the Dutch grid operator Liander. Results of the lab test and the live grid demonstration are expected during 2009 and 2010. First simulation results show a significant reduction of harmonic voltages and resonances, as well as a peak load reduction of 30%.
