WP3 – Power Electronics design and control for LV applications

Lead Beneficiary: UNIPD

Project Objectives: The aim of WP3 is to conduct the overall system-design and to provide cost-effective solutions to the distribution grid
planning, both at medium and low voltage, considering the installation of multiport converters. 

 Defining the topology, control and communication architectures, grid requirements and relevant indicators such as operational, performance and design. Data collection and processing of different case studies including low and high voltage for the multiport converter
design and the development of a methodology based on optimization for choosing the number, size and location of multiport converters that are required in a distribution grid.

The evaluation of the resilience improvement of the distribution network with multiport converters and identification of the scenarios where multiport converters can provide a cost-effective solution, especially considering the differences between low and medium voltage options.
