How should Dutch industry design the future energy system and adapt creatively to challenges that present themselves with such fierce urgency? Important decisions need to be made today on how the complex energy grid, connected power supply and industrial electrification can be implemented and operated.
About Grasping the Grid
Grasping the Grid is a fairly new program, that addresses the future of energy systems. In line with this, we have hosted a series of webinars and events between 2021 and 2022. During these events, stakeholders across the value chain jointly spoke about electrification of industry, both from a grid and industry site perspective. Furthermore, the way the electricity markets and digitization influence industrial electrification was discussed.
Requirements and capabilities of a future power grid
As a follow-up to the events and to successfully start-up the program, ISPT seeks cooperation with partners along the entire chain of electricity generation, transport, storage, and use. Thereby, ISPT will develop a new innovation program around electrification of industry and adaptability to future power supply. The program’s purpose is to develop new and highly needed integral insights of requirements and capabilities of a future power grid and an electrified industry sector in a novel energy system.
We have the ambition is to set up industrial projects, focused on electricity supply, grid stability, demand-side response, and the electricity market.
