Electrical conversion, energy systems and grid integration

Hybrid power plants comprising of multiple generation and/or storage technologies connected as a singular power plant behind a grid connection point is becoming an useful arsenal for green transition especially for congested power systems.

This mini symposium will invite presentations for different aspects of design, control, operation, test and validation of renewable hybrid plants consisting of a mix of wind, solar, storage and power-to-X technologies. A renewable hybrid plants consists of multiple generation and or storage technologies co-operated as a singular plant for either electricity production (through a single grid connection) and/or production of other energy vectors (example - hydrogen). The mini symposium is hosted by IEA Wind Task 50 on Hybrid Power Plants and will also allow interaction of mini symposium attendees with the task.  IEA Wind Task 50 on Hybrid power plants is looking at different aspects of defining hybrid power plants, developing reference plants, design and operational optimization as well as electrical design and control for grid service provisions.
