Abstract

The framework of energy transition poses significant challenges in subtransmission network development, where the increased renewable energy generation is collected, in order to efficiently convey power production, avoiding limitations in a range of operating conditions. In this paper, a method to evaluate possible margins for further renewable penetration due to electric network development is assessed, by means of scenario evaluation for the concretisation of renewable initiatives, combined producibility analysis, and load flow studies, accounting for operation islands in subtransmission network organisation, carried out in N and N-1 conditions. The method is applied to a provisional model of the southern part of the Italian power system.
