Grid compliance assessment for secure and reliable integration

Grid‑code compliance is now a standard requirement across global energy markets. Operators and project developers must demonstrate that new and existing installations can meet performance expectations under a range of operating conditions. Evolving regulations and emerging technologies are driving organizations to adopt advanced modelling and verification processes to support reliable, compliant grid connections.

Ensuring compliance with grid codes is often complex. Organizations need to navigate a patchwork of regional and national standards, create and maintain high-fidelity digital simulation models, carry out rigorous verification and comparative testing, and adapt to evolving technical and regulatory frameworks, without compromising delivery timelines or operational performance.

About DNV’s grid compliance assessment service

DNV provides advisory services to support organizations in meeting grid code requirements and achieving reliable, compliant grid connections. Combining advanced modelling and simulation tools with deep technical expertise, we help project teams navigate compliance processes and demonstrate that assets meet applicable standards. Our services include:

• Model testing and validation, and benchmarking: Development, testing, and benchmarking of models using Root Mean Square (RMS), Electro Magnetic Transient (EMT), and real‑time simulation tools to demonstrate compliance with grid‑code requirements.
• Grid-code verification: Independent assessment and verification of compliance, supported by DNV’s extensive understanding of international grid‑code frameworks.
• Grid-code development: Advisory support for the development and revision of grid codes, aligning them with the latest developments in technological advancements and industry best practices.
• Compliance-related generator modelling: Development of detailed generator models that comply with current regulations, supporting the integration of renewable energy projects into the grid.
