The project enhanced German power grids for hydrogen storage in salt caverns using PowerFactory-DIGSILENT and Python, focusing on stability, and operational optimization. It involved detailed grid analysis, feasibility studies, and dynamic simulations to assess the impact on grid performance and decarbonization efforts in industrial sectors.

- Modeling of FACTS devices in direct representation based on library components of PowerFactory software - Deriving FACTS representation in a simple equivalent circuit - Deriving dependencies between the direct and equivalent circuit representations of FACTS using MATLAB - Validating of both representations on IEEE 9-bus system - Studying the behavior of the multiple FACTS models on IEEE 39-bus system

- Collecting data about transmission system lines measurements - Developing and verifying existing models/Data sets of electric power systems using DIgSILENT PowerFactory - Building an IEEE 30 bus system as base model on DIgSILENT PowerFactory - Conducting a literature review on modeling and optimization of HVDC systems
