CIGRE International Symposium Trondheim 2025 - Call for papers
Changes needed in the Power System for the Energy Transition
Hosted by the Nordic Regional Council of CIGRE (NRCC)
Symposium theme
The CIGRE NRCC 2025 symposium in Trondheim will be on the theme: Changes Needed in The Power System - for the Energy Transition. This will be divided into two topic streams:
PS1: Integration of renewable energy resources to the grid
- Environmentally friendly power grid and its equipment
- New applications and technologies applied to AC and DC onshore and offshore grid
- AC and DC onshore and offshore grid
- AC grid development, protection of the future meshed AC and DC system
- Sector integration including hydrogen, EV, energy hubs, DER
- Services/operation applied to AC and DC onshore and offshore grid
- Monitoring the system applied to AC and DC onshore and offshore grid
- Maintenance and Services applied to AC and DC onshore and offshore grid
PS2: Technologies supporting the power grid for energy transition to carbon neutral energy production
- Requirements for power grid and its equipment
- Inverter based control interacting with existing system and Converter stability issues (resonance stability, converter driven stability)
- Coordination between AC and DC networks
- Grid forming
- Multivendor interoperability
- New modelling tools
- Planning and operation of lower inertia system
- System analysis (technical)
- Black start and resilience aspects including DER integration
- Optimize and increase the capacity of the energy transmission network
- Reliability and security – critical infrastructure
