The aim of the work of DERlab in Power System Services is:
- To define and characterise power system services, in terms of functionality, timescale, power / energy,
means of activation, in a general, technology independent manner.
- To propose testing methods for testing DER components power system services, for single units and for
aggregated response.

2nd DERlab workshop: DER Power System Services
19th October 2010, 14:00 - 18:00
before the SmartGrids and E-Mobility Conference
Bedford Hotel & Congress Centre, 135-137 Rue du Midi, 1000 Brussels (Belgium)

This workshop focuses on verification of power system services provided by the aggregated response from several individual and Distributed Energy Resources (DER) units. Only active and reactive power responses will be addressed. In most cases, the verification has to be carried out in situ with no on line registration of the individual responses. Examples of different control concepts will be presented as an input to the discussion.

The workshop aims to define power system services, in terms of functionality, timescale, power and energy, means of activation, in a general, technology-independent manner and also to propose testing methods for testing DER components power system services.
