Pan-European Single Reference Power System

Short description

Pan European system includes the models of several standard cells that can be representative of the different HV cell topologies. The models is realized in both DIgSILENT Powerfactory and Matlab-Simulink SimPowerSystems. 

Main technical features

The model is an extension of the CIGRE's European HV Benchmark network. The model combines AC and DC transmission systems at multiple voltage levels, with ranges from 20kV to 400kV in the AC system and a nominal voltage of the 725kV for the DC one. The cells inside contain diverse DERs: batteries, PWM inverter driven resources. Complete grid information can be found in the official ELECTRA deliverable D5.4 [1] as well as in the referenced UPEC publication [2]. Both publications need to be cited when using the grid model.
