Computational challenges in electrical power networks

Networks for the high-voltage distribution of electrical energy are currently undergoing farreaching developments. National power grids are evolving fromstatic entities, producingmainly a uni-directional flow from generation to loads, to more dynamic and decentralized structures. These emerging power systems should accommodate the local generation by renewable sources and peak demands of electrical vehicle charging. The cross-border interconnection of power grids further imposes new challenges in the design, planning and daily operation of these networks. In this paper Domenico Lahaye and Kees Vuik describe recentwork by the chair of numerical analysis at the TU Delft on the numerical simulation of electrical power networks.
