Microgrid DC with Mixed Energy Storage with complementary model

The possibility of using thermal and electric energy storage in combination with local PV-production and free cooling creates a unique platform for testing load balancing concepts for future EDGE DC scenarios. The accompanied model also enables the possibility to create large-scale implementation with a large population of DCs.

Input(s):

• Microgrid DC

Main feature(s):

• The microgrid DC can be used to test and study various load balancing approaches. It is equipped with both electrical and thermal storage plus local electrical production by PV-panels. The available system model and control interfaces enables both simulation and real world testing for entities interesting in evaluating the possibility of Microgrid enabled datacenters.

Output(s):

• Model and control interface of the microgrid DC.

The complexity of the installation (almost) requires on-site presence to configure and execute tests.
