Abstract

This paper deals with the identification of the necessary conditions for the smooth integration of power systems in the implementation of new smart technologies in network operations, from the aspect of organizational and technical integration of systems while meeting the requirements of relevant ISO standards.

Modern Distribution systems as Network Operators (DNO), are exposed to intensive transition processes. These processes are based on requirements related to the integration of renewables (RES), reduction of CO2emissions and the implementation of smart technologies to support the integration of storage, renewables and electric vehicles (EV). Compliance of such systems with the requirements of ISO standards is of great importance for the successful implementation of energy transition as a global business goal and to improve the position of these companies at the market. The implementation of new technologies directly depends on sustainable resource management, knowledge management and competence of all employees, including top management. The financial sustainability of the network operator (NO) in the conditions of increasing operational requirements directly depends on the competence and commitment of the top management to the realization of the determined goals. Integrated Management System (IMS) is a business environment in which it is easier to implement Energy system integration (ESI).
