Microgrid Testing - Monitoring and Testing

Microgrids pose unique challenges over traditional power grids: variable topologies, complex control and protection systems, an array of communication protocols and the need to interoperate multivendor equipment. These challenges make field testing complex and risky, so the IEEE 2030.8-2018 standard recommends Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) testing for the development, validation, and integration of microgrid control and protection systems. With HIL, you can test and optimize devices prior to release and installation, accelerate R&D and integration, and demonstrate proofs of concept. As a pioneering leader in Power Systems Simulation working with world leading Utilities for over three decades, we have helped deploy cutting-edge microgrid simulation projects globally. Always at the cutting-edge, our solutions simulate the systems required for any level of microgrid control, whether it’s at Real-Time or accelerated.
