Assem San Severino Marche

A Smart Grid project by ASM (Terni Multiutilities Municipal Company, around 65.000 customers, among the first 10 DSOs nationwide), awarded of the second place at national level by the Italian Energy&Gas Authority,will provide the fundamental infrastructure to implement proper services for increasing energy efficiency, use of renewables and e-mobility.

The project aims at delivering a comprehensive commercial and technical framework for the development of “Active Demand” in the smart grids of the future. ADDRESS investigates how to effectively activate participation of domestic and small commercial customers in power system markets and in the provision of services to the different power system participants.

This project is characterized by six different actions: 1. Advanced auto-selection faulty section with the help of “fast” hiperlan network; 2. Acquisition of electrical and environmental values for the MV and LV grids using TETRA/GPRS network; 3. New Criteria For Managing The MV Grid; 4. Photovoltaic plant + storage system + smart inverter + electric charge devices 5. Diagnostics for primary station; 6. Identification of transient fault point.

A2A has obtained a grant from the AEEG for two Smart Grid projects. The first regards a primary cabin in Milan (Lambrate) and the second a primary cabin in Brescia (Gavardo) with different characteristics in the underlying network. Both set out to overcome the present limitations of the interface protection of generators connected to the medium-voltage grid, to introduce innovative voltage regulation functionalities and, potentially, to carry out local despatch, only reporting summarised data to Terna of the production put into the medium-voltage grid.
