Second Advisory Board & Plenary Meetings of TenSyGrid and ISGT Europe 2025 in Malta

On October 24th, 2025, the TenSyGrid Project held its second advisory board and plenary meetings in Malta. The day began with a meeting with our Advisory Board members, Ravinder Venugopal, Kim Batselier, Alan Cassar, Seung-pil Moon, and Byungkwon Park. Members discussed with consortium the role of real-time operation tools and offline studies in power system stability analysis.
The event continued with updates from each of our project partners, Christoph Kaufmann (Fraunhofer-Institut für Windenergiesysteme), Gerwald Lichtenberg (Hamburg University of Applied Sciences), Josep Fanals i Batllori (eRoots Analytics), Eduardo Prieto Araujo (CITCEA-UPC), and Prof. Ing. John Licari (University of Malta), reflecting on our performance in the first year of the project and the strategy for the upcoming year.
The plenary meeting took place right after the IEEE Power & Energy Society ISGT Europe 2025 conference in Malta, where our partners presented several contributions and a joint tutorial. In the TenSyGrid Project, innovative stability analysis methods using multilinear models are being developed. With many contributors under the lead of Prof. Gerwald Lichtenberg, the MTI Toolbox 2.1 for MATLAB is now available (https://www.mti.systems) including many demos on how to use it. The day ended with the get-together at the dinner in the evening.

Also at the IEEE Power & Energy Society ISGT 2025, a joint tutorial by TenSyGrid partners was conducted, where the 2nd part was on modelling and small-signal analysis of power systems using the multilinear models in the MTI Toolbox. Fraunhofer IWES also shared early results on a discrete-time grid-forming control based on the Neimark–Sacker normal form that is an outcome of the work of Christoph Kaufmann with Bilguundalai Batkhuyag, Carlos Cateriano Yáñez, Georg Pangalos, and Gerwald Lichtenberg.
