In the course of the ECS4DRES project THK conducts research on how to coordinate multiple controllable loads in low-voltage distribution grids in UC1.

Each of those controllable loads might come with specific requirements. A typical approach is to formulate an Optimal Power Flow (OPF) optimization problem to capture

A new publication from our ECS4DRES consortium has just appeared in IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics:

“Mitigation of Active Power Oscillation in Multi-VSG Grids: An Impedance-Based Perspective”

As grid-forming converters move from single devices to systems of interacting controllers, stability questions are no longer device-level problems - they become networked

Hydrogen is often stored in its liquid form at cryogenic temperatures (≈ −253 °C). This ultra-cold environment can be leveraged to cool power electronics in stationary fuel cell systems or hydrogen-powered aviation, while also drastically reducing conduction losses.

In the ECS4DRES project, we are developing solutions for demand response. This is relevant because, in the future energy system, it will be increasingly important to consume energy when it is produced instead of producing energy when we need it, as we still largely do today. 

Grid operators in different EU member states use similar reserve markets to ensure a balanced

The kick-off meeting took place at Infineon Technologies AG, Neubiberg, very close to the contractual project start date on July 2 and July 3 2024.

57 attendees, about 47 of them on-site, among them the
