The integration of a large number of decentralized renewable energy generators in the distribution network was not something that could have been predicted at the time the network was developed and built. So far, the networks have handled the rapid and enormous expansion. However, the limits of stable network operation have been reached in many areas. The result is capacity bottlenecks in cables and transformers and voltage spikes in the network. One response to these challenges is the ABB's smart Compact Secondary Substation (CSS).

No such kind of magic that would make a grid repair itself has yet been invented. Self-healing refers here to the restoration of the power supply. A self-healing grid locates a fault location, isolates it by opening the closest disconnectors and restores power elsewhere in the grid. This requires a certain grid structure, ie, back-feed supply, grid automation and accurate locating of faults.
