The ERIGrid consortium is organising a webinar “PHIL simulation for DER and smart grids: best practices and experiences from the ERIGrid project” on 5 December 2017 at 11:00 – 12.30 CET.
Power Hardware in the Loop (PHIL) simulation is considered as one of the prevailing methods for the future testing of DER and smart grid technologies. Physical power equipment, such as DER inverters, are connected to real-time simulated active networks, achieving comprehensive testing in realistic and flexible conditions.
This webinar will focus on the following topics:
– Characteristics of PHIL simulation
– Stability, accuracy issues, interface topologies and stabilisation methods
– PHIL tests that show the value of the approach: DER inverters providing ancillary services, voltage-frequency control, microgrids, etc
– Improved Hardware in the Loop (HIL) methods in the ERIGrid project
– Live demonstration of HIL tests
