IQ-GRID
Intelligent power electronics (IPE) for high power quality of electricity in urban areas (IQ-GRID)
Publieke samenvatting / Public summary
Aanleiding
The Dutch government aims a low-carbon energy system and create opportunities for a new, sustainable economic growth. This aim requires transition to a large-scale utilization of renewable energy sources (RES). For increasing the flexibility of the grid power, electronic components have to become autonomous assets that utilize real-time analytics, which are able to perform on-board execution models and to ensure energy supplying quality for urban areas.
Doelstelling
Primary goal is to secure a high electrical-power quality in urban grids with significant utilization of electricity from RES by designing and developing intelligent power electronic components. These components will perform autonomous control demand response in order to cope with the intermittent nature of RES and the increase of energy storage and electrical vehicle (EV) chargers in the network.
