NICE GRID Project: facts and figures
AVIGNON
CARROS
NICE
Site description
 Carros: 10 500 inhabitants, with residential and industrial areas
 1,8 MWp of existing Solar PV
 88 secondary substations
 20 MW peak load at Primary substation
400 kV line
MARSEILLE
TOULON
Use cases
 Optimize massive PV integration in the distribution grid
 Test islanding within
fg a low voltage area
 Test 3.5 MW load shedding
 Incentivize Prosumer behavior
Seven solar districts
 550 clients with LINKY smart meters (2500 Linky in total)
 220 clients with electric water heaters
 50 solar installations: 550 kWp
 3 grid batteries: 1 x 250 kW/600 kWh and 2 x 33 kW / 106 kWh
 20 residential batteries: 4.6 kW / 4 kWh

Moving from a passive consumer
to an active consumer against Solar PV signals
OVERPRODUCTION
One may not consume energy at the same
time it is generated, which can lead to an
overgeneration. This unbalance can lead to
PV panels curtailment. The goal is to create a
smart solar district to allow for consuming the
whole generated energy
Alstom Grid- 2014 –16
OPTIMISATION
Displacing electrical consumption to the
time when solar energy is generated allows
for CO2 reduction

New generation smart inverters for grid storage
> Bi-directional conversion
> Connects any type of batteries
> Real-time connectivity to grids & markets
Includes a real-time control software that optimises battery
operation according to network control set-point:
- Renewable forecast and real-time estimation
- Decision of when to store and distribute energy
- IEC61850 interface for wide area controls
Alstom Grid- 2014 –20
New Generation Communication architectures
A combined solution can be deployed, taking
advantage of each technology and covering
all possibilities
All networks may be connected by Layer-3
switches, assuring total autonomy and realtime routing mechanisms
A very reliable network can be deployed
with no white zones or “gaps”
