Advanced Smart Grid Systems

The Advanced Smart Grid Systems teaching solution offers students a complete modular setup for gaining an in-depth understanding of complex interactions between renewable energy sources, energy storage, and consumers on a laboratory scale.

This system enables students to construct and control a smart grid within a lab environment, featuring both pre-set scenarios and options for custom or user-designed configurations. Included components cover various renewable energy sources, such as wind and photovoltaic modules, as well as energy storage options like lithium-iron-phosphate batteries and fuel cells.
