Studies & Consulting

End-to-end expertise in power grid engineering

From feasibility studies to compliance reports, our engineers cover the full study cycle for distribution networks and RES projects.

Static network studies

Load flow · Short-circuit · Voltage drop · Power quality

Expertise

Load flow calculation (Newton-Raphson), short-circuit currents Icc max/min (IEC 60909), node-by-node voltage level verification, harmonic and flicker analysis (EN 50160).

Typical deliverables

  • Load flow report (voltage profiles, power flows, Joule losses)
  • Short-circuit calculation note + fault current tables
  • EN 50160 verification (harmonics, phase imbalance)
  • Reinforcement or reactive compensation recommendations

In practice

Ensure the network supplies all customers without overload or failure, including in the event of line outages or large consumer start-up.

Grid connection & RES integration

Hosting capacity · Voltage impact · Anti-islanding · Grid code

Expertise

Voltage impact study (voltage rise on injection), hosting capacity calculation, grid code compliance (P(f), Q(U), PQ diagrams), anti-islanding protection verification, inverter harmonic study.

Typical deliverables

  • Hosting capacity study with constraint mapping
  • Voltage profile impact note (Umin/Umax at all nodes)
  • Grid code compliance report
  • Protection sizing and decoupling relay settings

In practice

Determine the maximum RES power (solar or wind) the network can absorb safely, and identify the conditions for acceptance by the network operator.

Network planning & sizing

Preliminary design · Master plan · Storage · Rural electrification

Expertise

Preliminary and detailed design (APS/APD), generation/transmission/distribution master plan, topology optimisation, BESS sizing, off-grid and hybrid rural electrification.

Typical deliverables

  • APS/APD report with single-line diagrams and power balances
  • Storage (BESS) and generation sizing
  • 5 / 10 / 20-year network development plan
  • Technical and economic feasibility study

In practice

Obtain a fully sized network — cables, transformers, batteries — suited to an isolated site, an industrial park or an existing expanding network.

Training

Static studies · RES & grid code · Smart grids · Optimisation

Expertise

Four tracks: static/short-circuit/dynamic studies; RES integration and grid code (PQ, UQ, hosting capacity); advanced smart grid management; network optimisation algorithms.

Typical deliverables

  • Course materials and real-case exercises
  • In-house / open sessions, on-site or remote
  • Hands-on practice with Ikadips software
  • Training certificate and assessment

In practice

Hands-on training to master modern power grid tools and methods, suited to junior engineers and project managers alike.
