Prof. Thierry Van Cutsem, ULg, Belgique
Keeping Medium-Voltage grid operation within secure
limits
Résumé
The willingness to increase the penetration of renewable energy sources and other
mutations are likely to push distribution systems towards their thermal or voltage
operation limits. In so far as those stressed conditions prevail for limited periods of
time, the control of distributed generation (and, to some extent, of loads) offers an
interesting alternative to network reinforcement. Some research work dealing with
this issue will be presented, in particular in the context of the GREDOR project.
10.50 – 11.25:
Prof. Bruno François, Ecole Centrale de Lille, France
Application of communication networks and distributed
storage systems through new energy management
algorithms for smarter grids
Résumé
Storage systems and communication networks are new technologies that may be
used to increase the accuracy, security and dynamic response of energy
management systems. An application regarding the design and test of a Microgrid
Central Energy Management System will be presented with a focus on the day
ahead operational planning and the online intraday adjustment procedure.
11.25 – 12.00
Prof. Virginie Dégardin, Université de Lille, France
Power line communication (PLC) for transportation
systems
Résumé
The feasibility of powerline communication is studied over the vehicular and avionic
networks. The first part concerns the analysis and characterization of networks
from a theoretical and experimental approach. A second part deals with the
implementation of a simulation tool based on the HomePlug specifications to
predict the performance of a broadband communication under electromagnetic
compatibility constraints.

Low-cost fiber optic temperature sensor for power cables
monitoring
Résumé
A fiber optic temperature monitoring system dedicated to distribution power
networks is presented. Based on intermodal interference principles, this sensing
technique is designed with a very low-cost approach which allows its large
geographical deployment. Experimental and field results are presented for a 7 km
underground cable link and electrical junctions.
15.35– 16.10:
Prof. Geert Deconinck, KUL, Belgique
Combining technical constraints and market objectives
when charging electric vehicles
Résumé
The charging of electric vehicles can play a double role for supporting future
smart grids. On the one hand, it can keep voltage within its normal range,
while on the other hand, it can shift its load pattern in order to balance the
grid. In this presentation, we will show that these technical constraints and
market objectives are not contradictory, and even can be combined without
reverting to overly complex approaches.
