Grid Code & Compliance
Ensuring renewable generators, energy storage systems, data centers and industrial facilities comply with national and international grid standards.
Connection & Compliance Assurance
- Fault ride-through (FRT/LVRT/HVRT), active/reactive power and voltage-control performance.
- Frequency response, power-frequency characteristics, RoCoF and synthetic/virtual inertia requirements.
- RMS and EMT model requirements, validation, benchmarking and model-quality review.
- Compliance study programmes, evidence review, gap assessment and independent assurance.
- Technical requirements for GFL/GFM converters, BESS, hybrid plants and emerging technologies.
Grid Impact Studies
We assess how a proposed connection changes network performance. The study scope follows the relevant network operator’s requirements and the project’s operating conditions.
Power Flow & Network Loading
Thermal loading, voltage profiles and reactive power flows across relevant operating scenarios.
Fault Levels & Equipment Duty
Changes in short-circuit levels and implications for equipment ratings.
Stability & Dynamic Performance
Network response to disturbances, including voltage and frequency behaviour.
System Strength & Converter Interaction
Assessment of converter-related risks and the need for detailed EMT analysis.
Contingencies & Operating Limits
Performance under credible outages and constraints on connection operation.
Mitigation & Connection Options
Comparison of reinforcement, control and compensation measures to address identified impacts.
From Connection Application to Compliance
We bring study findings into a clear connection submission: an agreed requirements register, traceable models and assumptions, mitigation recommendations and supporting technical evidence. Compliance testing support and evidence review help address outstanding requirements through the connection process.
