The findings and results of this study essentially confirm the conclusions arrived at in previous projects. However, this study also enables the previous results to be updated and form a broader context covering the respective organisational and legal tasks, as well as the relevant frameworks. Consequently, an additional value of this project has been the setting-up of merged simulation models for the steady state and dynamic system simulations. The comprehensive dynamic studies conducted during the project have never previously been performed with such large simulation models. This underlines the fact that dynamic effects reveal the most limiting criteria for system extensions in preference to steady-state load flow limitations.
As to a possible synchronous coupling of the UCTE and the IPS/UPS, the findings and results as well as the impact of a synchronous coupling on the UCTE system can be summarized as follows.
