FGH – Research Association for Power Systems and Power Economics

The safe, successful grid integration of renewable energy sources, further development of energy technology systems required for this as well as our academy distinguish us.

FGH – Research Association for Power Systems and Power Economics.

Benefit from FGH's many years of experience, our proven and recognized expertise in four lines of competence:

1. Power Systems Technologies

We specialize in the standard-compliant design, installation, and testing of power generation plants and primary/secondary technical equipment. For manufacturers and operators of power generation plants as well as grid operators we prepare  electrotechnical engineering services, inter alia grid connection studies, cable dimensioning, control concepts, electrical design planning, due diligence analyses, grid code analyses, simulation models and we support them in proving grid connection compliance – nationally and internationally.

2. Testing & Certification

With our accredited test laboratory, we offer manufacturers and project planners conformity declarations and type tests for power generation plants and for components of protection and control technology as well as certifications of power generation units or plants and storage systems in accordance with national and international grid codes, e.g. VDE-AR-N 4110/4120. Our independent certification body is the world's first accredited institution for grid connection certification.

3. Electrical Grids

We are actively shaping the successful transformation of power grids as part of the energy transition. Through research projects, software tools such as INTEGRAL, InterAss or solutions for redispatch optimization as well as comprehensive grid and system studies, we effectively and efficiently support the work of German and European transmission and distribution grid operators.

4. Academy

With its multifaceted practice-oriented training program, the Academy rounds off our service portfolio.
