New energy system dimensioning and control
| Multi-Energy Smart Grid Platform
Localized in Chambéry this platform's goal is to evaluate energy management technologies on complicated networks (electricity/ gas/ heat) in real-world scenarios before deploying them.
This semi-virtual platform aims to
test actual components on real networks but whose applications are simulated (virtualized). This enables the creation of multiple usage profiles and the identification of their impact on the system's overall functionality. The platform's work attempts to dimension, control, and optimize: -
energy systems, which include a variety of production sources, particularly those that are renewable in nature (photovoltaic, micro-hydro, etc.).
-
facilities for conversion (electrical, electricity/heat, electricity/gas converters, and so forth).
-
electrical or heat storage facilities by mixing emulators and genuine components
Its design enables researchers to investigate various network configurations ranging from micro-ilotated to interconnected networks, test components, establish control strategies, test them, and therefore optimise their profitability.
