T-SENTINEL TOOLSET: Is the TRINITY technological solution targeting Transmission System Operators (TSOs) and Regional Security Coordinators (RSCs).
T-SENTINEL security module is responsible for performing day ahead and intraday power system static security checks and optimization of coordinated multi-lateral remedial actions when potential overloads are detected. The security module aims to deliver advancements in the context of (1) improved efficiency of solving network congestions through co-optimization of non-costly and costly redispatching actions and (2) better share the overall costs of redispatching.
T-SENTINEL reliability module includes the development of innovative methods and corresponding IT solutions related to the capacity calculation performed by RSCs and TSOs. It is based on the novel concept of Reliability Margin statistical assessment, as a hybrid between Flow-based (Flow Reliability Margin – FRM) and transaction-based (Transmission Reliability Margin – TRM) calculation principles, which would in return provide more robust transmission capacity calculation in both available principles.

R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
The module is expected to be fully established for the needs of South East Europe by the end of the TRINITY project, i.e., autumn 2023. Additional features and evolutions will be implemented in line with the requests of the new customers and expansion to different regions. The funding strategy will be based on the own investments, user financing for specific upgrades and customizations, as well as the further research and inovation activities.
The T-SENTINEL has been made in a modular way, ensuring the scalability of the product.
The developed solutions were tailored to the European electricity guidelines requirements, with the aim to be replicable in other regions or pan European scale as much as possible.
Even before completion of the TRINITY project, there is an interest from several parties outside of the project for software licencing. The software developer aims to benefit via licencing and maintenance payment scheme, as well as by providing consultancy services with usage of the software tool for relevant calculations.
