Planning the future of power systems requires not only robust software tools but also deep expertise in both steady-state and dynamic behaviour. At eRoots, we bring together these capabilities to design, analyse, and optimise the expansion of networks, particularly in regions where the challenges are greatest: islanded systems, weak grids, and areas with high renewable penetration. Our mission is to help utilities, developers, and policymakers build networks that are not only technically sound but also resilient, sustainable, and cost-effective.
Our experience in grid expansion and development is especially strong in cases involving electrical islands, whether they are remote isolated systems, geographical islands with growing renewable installations, or even artificial islands designed as future energy hubs. These environments are uniquely demanding: limited interconnections, high exposure to variability from renewables, and the need to guarantee power quality at all times. By combining advanced modelling with practical insight, we deliver tailored solutions that balance security, efficiency, and investment needs.
The solutions we offer span a broad range of analyses and recommendations, including:
- Power flow and short-circuit studies to provide a clear picture of system capacity and fault performance.
- Frequency, voltage, and transient stability assessments to ensure robust operation under normal and stressed conditions.
- Identification of critical network nodes and lines, highlighting where reinforcements will have the highest impact.
- Optimisation-driven battery sizing and placement, maximising the value of storage investments in supporting stability and flexibility.
- Recommendations on grid upgrades and investment strategies, aligning technical requirements with economic constraints.
- System resiliency assessments, addressing both short-term reliability and long-term adaptability to future energy transitions.
What makes eRoots different is our ability to combine rigorous analysis with actionable strategies. We do not simply simulate scenarios, we provide clear pathways for strengthening grids, reducing risks, and enabling greater renewable penetration without compromising quality of service. Our integrated approach ensures that every recommendation is backed by data, grounded in technical reality, and designed to be implemented effectively.
By partnering with eRoots, utilities and developers gain more than just studies; they gain a roadmap for building networks that can stand the test of time, resist disruptions, and evolve with the accelerating pace of the energy transition.
