Securing islands’ power supply through break-up power modulation
• Test of a first version of targeted curtailment, as an alternative to load shedding, based on reducing the break-up level on Linky meters.
Further development
needed before roll out
• Adaptation of the two islands’ MV grid through commissioning of remote controlled power switches.
• Integration of diesel generators’ remote control to the grid command centre in Rennes.
Grid-wide roll out ongoing
ACHIEVEMENTS AND LESSONS LEARNED
• Implementing a backup power supply solution for the islands in case of outage on undersea cables, factoring in intermittency of demand throughout seasons.
OBJECTIVES
520 Linky smart meters, 30 testers, 1 power generator, 6 secondary MV/LV substations
