It focuses on modularity, automation, and simplicity to enhance operational security and reduce costs. The architecture is based on a self-hosted, cloud-native platform specifically designed for secure and data-driven operations. The MSHIP - Power Flow (PF) project actually covers several operational functionalities, first of all Power Flow calculation considering stable, quasi-stationary system states determined by specified injections and loads at the busses, specified target values ​​of local controllers (e.g., voltage regulation by tap-change transformers), and a specified network model (equipment, its parameters, and its topological interconnection), further on Contingency Analysis performing repeated application of power flow calculation to a variety of contingency system states (e.g., line outage, generator outage), an optimizing mode where the power flow calculation is extended to adjust pre-specified operational control variables towards the minimization/maximization of a user-selected objective function while maintaining physical and operational constraints thus arriving at an Optimal Power Flow solution, and finally a Network Reduction routine that can be run prior to the power flow calculation itself allowing the approximate consideration of external grid areas in the subsequent operational planning for remaining internal grid areas. Please note that also responses are invited and will be considered that do not cover all listed functionalities of the PF project. services siehe englische Beschreibung. Initial Situation Germany 'Energiewende' (energy transition - see https://www.netzentwicklungsplan.de/en/verstehen/glossar/e ) and the goals of the German Electricity Network Development Plan (NEP - see https://www.netzentwicklungsplan.de/en) challenges the transmission systems operators to expand and enhance their capabilities to operate the grid of the future (see link to NEP). MSHIP Program objectives TransnetBW started to setup a program ("MSHIP") with multiple projects - one of the objectives: To evolve technical capabilities (hardware and software) to be prepared for the next 22 years to be able to implement required applications faster and more efficient (see NEP 2037/2045 with focus on achieving a climate-neutral grid by 2045). 72212211 she. Englisches Feld Buyer Official name: TransnetBW GmbH Email: mship-na-procurement@transnetbw.de Activity of the contracting entity: Electricity-related activities Procedure Title: MSHIP Market Survey for Power Flow Description: To participate in the RFI process and gain access to further information and essential documents, such as the Scope Document, interested parties are required to follow the specified procedure. To gain access to further information and documentation, you must first register your interest via the TED platform. Once this step is complete, you will be able to view the additional information and documentation. Please note that, due to the sensitive and confidential nature of the information involved, all participants must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). You will only be granted access to documents like the Scope Document once the NDA has been signed and returned. We kindly request that interested parties submit their inquiries in a timely manner, but not later than 30.06.2025. Responses with proposed solutions should ideally be submitted by mid/end of July. Purpose Description: The purpose of this RFI is to identify potential providers and solutions that can meet the requirements of the MSHIP - Power Flow. The RFI is intended to provide an initial market overview and to evaluate possible technological approaches and their ability to integrate into the existing MSHIP architecture. The aim is not to commit to a specific system, an architecture or provider in advance. Openness to different approaches remains the main guiding principle. The information gathered will serve as a basis for future decisions and possible tenders. Participation in this market exploration will not result in any advantages or disadvantages for the participants as potential bidders in a future - not yet binding - tender procedure.
