Network Studies

Ensuring a smooth connection to the electrical grid is essential for any energy generation project. When establishing a connection for any type of electricity generation to the grid, it is important to inform your local Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO). For larger systems, a comprehensive electrical network study may be required to verify that the local grid network can accommodate the power the system will generate. Our job at Boschetti is to carry out studies to determine whether or not any modifications to the grid will be needed before new connections can be established. 

What is included in a network study?

Conducting an electrical network study involves a thorough assessment to measure the effectiveness and dependability of power distribution systems. The study will evaluate both static and dynamic aspects of the network, examining factors like load distribution, voltage stability, and fault tolerance.

Static analysis focuses on steady-state conditions, ensuring that the network can handle normal operating loads without voltage fluctuations or reliability issues. Dynamic studies, on the other hand, investigate the network's response to transient events like faults or sudden load changes, ensuring that protective devices and control systems operate effectively to maintain system stability. 

Our network study services

Here at Boschetti, we specialise in the following network studies:

Solar Farms

We conduct thorough network studies to evaluate the local grid’s capacity to handle the additional energy produced by solar installations. By assessing load capabilities and identifying potential infrastructure upgrades, we ensure that your solar farm operates efficiently without overloading the existing network. Our comprehensive approach analyses voltage stability and fault tolerance, enabling a reliable connection that maximises energy generation and supports local energy needs.

Renewable Energy Developments

Our expertise in network studies helps ensure that your renewable energy projects comply with all regulatory requirements while facilitating seamless integration into the grid. Our detailed network studies ensure compliance with AEMO standards, evaluating both static and dynamic aspects of the electrical network to generate valuable insights that not only help developments meet safety and performance standards but also enhance the overall effectiveness of renewable energy initiatives.

Compliance with Australian Energy Market Operator requirements is crucial in conducting electrical network studies, ensuring that power systems meet regulatory standards for reliability and performance. Trust Boschetti to operate with complete compliance, providing the expertise and support necessary for your electrical projects and helping you navigate network studies with ease.
