eFORT is an EU-funded project that will make European power grids more resilient and reliable against failures, cyberattacks, physical disturbances and data privacy issues. eFORT will increase power system stability by developing technologies for identifying, preventing, and mitigating risks and vulnerabilities.
The need for eFORT is prompted by power and electricity systems undergoing unprecedented changes caused by social and environmental concerns. The holistic approach of the project covers the whole grid value chain and is demonstrated in four pilot sites.
In the eFORT project, Fraunhofer EMI develops dynamic simulations that contribute to increase the resilience of electricity grids. The methods are demonstrated using a distribution grid in the Sarentino Valley (Italy), which is operated by Edyna.
