On 5 October at 13:00 CET ERIGrid will hold an open consultation at the European Utility Week 2017, with the aim to obtain feedback from energy professionals and manufacturers on ERIGrid's recent developments in holistic system integration, validation procedures, and simulation methodologies.
You can find the programme of the consultation here.
Registration is free of charge. To register please contact erigrid-mgt@list.ait.ac.at.
Number of attendees is limited.

TRANSNATIONAL ACCESS USERS
|
|
|
Among successful applicants for the 1st ERIGrid Transnational Access is the user group INTREPID (INtelligent Transformer for Renewable Energy Prosumers Integration and Deployment) from Ormazabal Cotradis.
|
|
|
|
The users gained free access to the test centre for smart grids and electromobility SysTec of Fraunhofer IWES. With the support of the staff at the Fraunhofer IWES hosting infrastructure, they carried out their research project related tests in the domain of reliable operation of transformers under distributed grid conditions.

ERIGrid’s collaboration with the smart grids community will be followed by:
|

|
In June 2017 Fraunhofer IWES held an ERIGrid webinar dedicated to the self-developed co-simulation tool OpSim and its potential usage in the project. The webinar demonstrated how OpSim can combine several simulation platforms, automatic control of tests, including web based interface for connecting external simulation platforms, and remote users. The tool also provides the possibility to include real-time simulators (e.g., from OPAL-RT) in order to perform additional hardware-in-the-loop test cases.
|
|
Being able to combine several validation methods that ERIGrid is deploying, such as co-simulation, real-time simulations and hardware-in-the-loop technologies, OpSim proves to be a suitable tool for ERIGrid's holistic testing and validation objectives.
The webinar training will contribute to the refinement of several test cases for upcoming experiments in the project.
