New Project: Bazian Power Plant – Protection Coordination of Substation Auxiliary System
Proud to announce that we are qualified by TAURUS ENERGY to perform protection coordination analyses of the substation auxiliary system of Bazian Power Plant.
New Project: AVR & PSS Tuning & Tests of ÇAN-2 TPP
Excited to announce that we are qualified by ODAŞ for “Parameter tuning & tests of Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) & Power System Stabilizer (PSS) of Çan 2 Thermal Power Plant (TPP).
We will collaborate with JT Systems Power Engineering (Mr. José Taborda) in the project as usual.
Proper tuning of parameter settings of the AVR & PSS of the plant will ensure positive damping (or at least prevent negative damping ) to both local (~1Hz) and inter-area (~0,15Hz) oscillations to contribute improving stability of the Turkish power grid.
New Project: UEDAŞ DisCo – Grid Master Plan & Master Project (2025 – 2035)
We are excited to announce our new project: UEDAŞ DisCo – Grid Master Plan & Master Project (2025 – 2035). Scope of the project includes:
- Data collection for modelling
- Demand projection
- Planning criteria
- Modelling of the grid with DIgSILENT PowerFactory
- Grid analysis
- Prioritization of the grid investment requirements
- CAPEX reports
Gdz DSO increased its number of DIgSILENT StationWare* licenses for the process management of grid protection coordination.
DIgSILENT StationWare is a central software platform for managing all the processes in protection coordination of the power grids including relay coordination design / implementing relay settings / setting amendments / preparing work orders, etc., in a systematic way.
New Project: Impact of Locational Marginal Pricing (LMP) on Türkiye’s Power System: Accelerating Renewable Energy Integration
We are thrilled to announce our new project with SHURA Enerji Dönüşümü Merkezi: “Impact of Locational Marginal Pricing (LMP) on Türkiye’s Power System: Accelerating Renewable Energy Integration”.
The study will investigate a mid and long-term roadmap for Türkiye concerning the need for moving towards the locational electricity pricing (LMP) concept. The study will show how the electricity network gets under pressure by proliferation of renewable energy resources and under such circumstances, how the networked constraints should be considered in the electricity market clearance procedure.
New Project: Modelling and Weak-point Analyses of Balkanabat Distribution Grid – Turkmenistan
We are thrilled to announce our new project “Modelling and Weak-point Analyses of Balkanabat Distribution Grid – Turkmenistan” with Çalık Enerji.
AKEDAS DisCo preffered EPRA for integrating its GIS grid model with DIgSILENT PowerFactory
Like many distribution companies (DisCo) in Türkiye, AKEDAŞ Elektrik Dağıtım A.Ş. (DisCo) preferred EPRA Energy for integrating its Geographic Information System (GIS) with DIgSILENT PowerFactory. Python based algorithms developed by EPRA enables AKEDAS DisCo to report errors in GIS model (if any) and transform the GIS model to DIgSILENT PowerFactory model ready for grid analysis automatically.
Report Launch
Our R&D Director Saeed Teimourzadeh will be panellist at the report launch event of Shura Energy Transition Center (SHURA Enerji Dönüşümü Merkezi) on July 10, 2024 (10:30-12:00) for the study “Transportation Sector Transformation: Integrating Electric Vehicles into Türkiye’s Distribution Grids” which modelling and analysis of grid impacts of electric vehicles are performed by EPRA Energy.
Project workshop in the scope of MERAM DisCO Master Plan Project
Within the scope of our ongoing Grid Master Plan project with MERAM EDAŞ (DisCo), we held a productive workshop with EPRA Energy and MERAM EDAŞ project team in our EPRA Ankara office.
New Project: Grid connection and compliance analysis of several solar power plants in Türkiye
Asunim Group preferred again the quality of EPRA Energy in grid connection and compliance analysis of several solar power plants (SPP) in Türkiye: Kocalar SPP, Hasanoba SPP, and Denizli SPP.
Projects
EPRA has carried out more than 100 projects that involve R&D and high engineering services for numerous public and private sector institutions and organizations in Turkey and more than 10 countries with its advanced analytical competencies and technical skills covering a wide range of areas from analysis of short-term system dynamics to long-term market simulations in the electricity energy sector.
