Electric meter simulator with DLMS protocol
Tsymbal, Kateryna ; Gerlich, Tomáš (referee) ; Lieskovan, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is focused on getting acquainted with the DLMS/COSEM protocol and its functions. Furthermore, the Java programming language and the Raspberry Pi minicomputer are briefly introduced. The DLMS/COSEM protocol is used to simulate measurements using a smart meter, which ensures communication between the meter simulator and the concentrator. Communication provided by the DLMS/COSEM protocol is widely used in smart grids. The first part of the thesis discusses important information about energy networks and their relationship with smart meters, the importance of smart meters in modern networks and the role of smart networks, which are used for effective energy measurement in a particular area (e.g. for measuring electricity). Data measured in smart grids can be easily analyzed and used to make consumption more effective. The first part also mentions important information about the DLMS/COSEM protocol, the Java programming language and the Raspberry Pi minicomputer. In the second part of the thesis, a test environment is created for testing the smart meter simulator, which communicates using the DLMS/COSEM protocol with the concentrator and transmits the measured values to it. Measured values are manually defined for testing purposes using code changes in the Eclipse IDE. The aim of the work was to create a smart meter simulator that lists predefined values and passes them to the concentrator, which was achieved using the Gurux.DLMS library. Finally, an analysis of this communication was performed using Wireshark. This bachelor thesis is useful for a simple understanding of the DLMS/COSEM protocol and its use in smart grids.

The main researched branch of the study is the usage of the flexibility potential of heat pumps. The work is based on real data from a pilot project executed in the winter of 2021/22, which examines the portfolio of households with a heat pump and observes the possibilities of using flexibility, its management and especially the impact on load change depending on the estabilished baseline.
Voltage profile regulation in LV distribution systems by means of OLTC equipped distribution transformer and series transformers based on distributed monitoring data
Hála, Tomáš ; Topolánek, David (referee) ; Drápela, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis discusses two major topics. The first one is the control size of the voltage in LV networks in regard to the increase in distributed generation concered to renewable energy sources. The study contains a review focused on the current state of low voltagegrid followed by a proposal for the solution of the oncoming state. The solution is identified as a deploying OLTC distribution transformer. In the case of more complex topology is deployed a series voltage transformer. Both methods are part of the Smart Grid. The thesis also analyzes the issue of the data measurement and data transmission. The second part of the thesis consists of the description of selected control strategies and their simulations. The design of individual system elements in the PSCAD is described. From these elements, a test network was constructed and tested the individual simulation scenarios.
Analyses of the breaker/limiter functions for low voltage supply points
Bajánková, Denisa ; Toman, Petr (referee) ; Topolánek, David (advisor)
The diploma thesis provides an insight into the remote control and disconnection of DSO supply points phenomenon. The remote or local disconnection/connection of supply point is allowed by the breaker function. The automatic disconnection of supply point is enabled by the limiter function. Due to the anticipated implementation of smart meters in the Czech Republic in the future, this work contains the comprehensive description of breaker/limiter function with proposed possibilities of use in the Czech Republic. The thesis deals with the current breaker/limiter function use in the Czech Republic and in other countries. It introduces the smart meter installation in pilot projects to analyze the breaker/limiter function use in other countries. The thesis is focused on the technical solution of breaker/limiter. Moreover, it describes the ways of connecting the breaker, settting the limiter, connecting/disconnecting a supply point and breaker operation. Further, the thesis introduces the ways of activating the breaker by a customer and defines in which cases it is possible to limit and interrupt the electricity supply in the Czech Republic currently. The main aim of thesis is to describe the specific possibilities of breaker/limiter function use in the Czech Republic. With regard to the function use in other countries and the limiting or interrupting the electricity supply by DSO according to energy law, the possibilities of use are proposed. Each possibility of use is analyzed when implementing the breaker function or the breaker/limiter function. The benefits are defined for a DSO and for a customer. The proposed uses are evaluated in terms of applicability and valid legislation in the Czech Republic. The result of this work is the summary of information about breaker/limiter function which is one of the new features in the implementation of smart metering. The function installation and the implementation of possibilities described in the thesis depends on the DSO decision.

Cyber security for power engineering
Sedláková, Dáša ; Kohout, David (referee) ; Mlýnek, Petr (advisor)
Due to the IT and OT networks convergence, industrial systems are becoming vulnerable to different forms of security threats including rapidly growing cyber-attacks. Thesis is focused on an analysis of security recommendations in IEC 62351, vulnerability testing of industrial communication protocols (e.g., IEC 61850) and mitigations proposal. An ATT&CK framework for ICS was chosen to become a methodology base for vulnerability testing. ATT&CK tactics and techniques were used to practically test vulnerability scans, SMV time synchronization, GOOSE spoofing, MMS Man in the Middle and ICMP Flood attacks. Attacks tested were evaluated with a risk analysis. Subsequently, mitigation measures were proposed on several levels (OT, IT, perimeter and physical level).
