Brief description and/or other information regarding the project:
The increasing demand for energy and energy consulting forces both the extension as well as the reorganization of todays energy systems. Especially in Austria the energy grids become more and more decentralized and based on renewables. An essential question in this context is how electrical energy could be stored in an efficient way. OREANIS will focus on different possibilities for so-called 'intelligent storages' and their impact on the power grid.The primary objective of OREANIS is to compensate the natural generation fluctuations of renewable energy technologies by intelligent storage, control and optimisation of the energy demand and generation. Thus, an efficient load balancing mechanism in the regional grid can be achieved. Within the project basic issues and the premises for industrial research will be evaluated. Thus the basis for solutions for the challenges of network operation will be created.
