Abstract: A method for providing control power for an electricity network in which at least one energy store connected to the electricity network supplies energy to the electricity network as required and/or takes up energy from the electricity network as required, such that, when there is a change of required control power, a time after a change from which a changed control power is provided by the energy store is chosen in dependence on a charging state at a given time of the energy store. A device for carrying out such a method includes at least one energy store and a control system for controlling power of the energy store in an open-loop and/or closed-loop manner, the energy store being connected to an electricity network such that energy can be fed into the electricity network and can be removed from the electricity network by the device.

Abstract: A method for providing control power for an electricity network in which at least one energy store connected to the electricity network supplies energy to the electricity network as required and/or takes up energy from the electricity network as required, the control power being delivered in dependence on a frequency deviation from a setpoint value of a network frequency, tolerance with respect to the amount of the control power to be provided being used to set a charging state of the energy store at a same time as providing control power by the energy store. A device for carrying out such a method includes a control system and an energy store, the device being connected or connectable to an electricity network, the control system being connected to the energy store and controlling control power given off and/or taken up by the energy store.

Abstract: A process for the production of a pipe comprising: an interior surface having a shape; and a thermoplastic inliner is provided. The process comprises: introducing the thermoplastic inliner into the interior of the pipe; heating the pipe from the outside to a temperature higher than a crystallite melting point (Tm) of a moulding composition of an exterior surface of the inliner; expanding the inliner radially in the pipe so that an exterior surface of the inliner assumes the shape of the interior surface of the pipe; and cooling the inliner; wherein a cross section of the inliner is optionally reduced through exposure to an exterior force prior to being introduced into the pipe. Relative movements between carrier pipe and inliner are thus prevented; the risk of collapse of the inliner is moreover low. The pipe is used for the production of a laid pipeline.

Abstract: A method providing control power for an electricity network in which at least one energy store supplies energy to the electricity network and/or takes up energy from the electricity network dependent on a frequency deviation from a desired frequency of the electricity network, a deadband being prescribed around the desired frequency. The frequency deviation from the network frequency is measured with greater accuracy than a width of the deadband and a bandwidth within the deadband is chosen dependent on a charging state of the energy store, with control power being provided outside the bandwidth. A device carrying out the method includes at least one energy store and a control system controlling control power of the energy store in an open-loop or closed-loop manner, the energy store being connected to an electricity network such that energy can be fed into the electricity network and can be removed from the electricity network.
