CRESYM is a non-profit association, gathering industrial & academic research organisations and aiming at solving the coming challenges for the future, fast-evolving European energy system.
We foster collaborative R&D works to deliver opensource energy system simulation tools
We foster efficient collaborations on low-TRL R&D issues of general interest.
We promote, and rely on, opensource principles.
We shall maintain useful technological building blocks available for all researchers & engineers.
Ongoing projects
TWINEU (pilot 8)
The power system is undergoing major changes due to the integration of renewable energy and power electronics. To support system operators from day-ahead planning to real-time operations, new smart assistant tools are being developed. Despite these tools, operators will continue to play a central role in anticipating issues, coordinating distributed controls, and managing balancing and congestion. To prepare these future operators, existing decision support tools need upgrading and realistic testing environments. This goal is being pursued through the European project TWINEU (Pilot 8), with further enhancements from the TRAISIM side project—both forming parts of a unified initiative.
LaRISA – Large Res Integration Stability Analysis
The Slovenian network will experience in the next 10 years a high growth of electricity demand, decreasing inertia due to an high level of RES penetration (40% in energy coverage), and an increasing level of cross border exchanges. Stability issues must be tackled in network planning exercise.
TRAISIM
The objective of this project is to build a power system training Digital Twin that could be used to train future operators.
This training Digital Twin will be partly developed by the European project TWINEU (Pilot 8, covered by Task 5.5 – A power system training simulator for complex and critical situations) and be enhanced by this side project called TRAISIM.
TRAISIM focuses on the acceleration of the real-time simulator embedded in the training simulator, where the simulation must operate at least as fast as the actual physical processes it replicates.
