Stay tuned!

On the 31st of March, The ERIGrid 2.0 Project team had their final meeting at @AITtomorrow2day .🖊️📊🔍 With the project coming to an end in April 2025, this was an opportunity for the whole team to discuss and look back on the project. The ERIGrid 2.0 achievements were highlighted. The consortium reflected on the project work and possible future collaborations. We take this opportunity to thank all our consortium partners for their valuable contribution throughout the duration of The ERIGrid 2.0 Project! #AITAustrianInstituteofTechnology, @VTTFinland, @RSEnergetico, #KEMALabs, #DERlab, @RWTH, #OFFISInstituteforInformationTechnology, #FraunhoferIEE, @DTUtweet, @tudelft, @CEA_Officiel, @PHAETHONCoE, @SINTEF, #Ormazabal, @UniStrathclyde, @tecnalia, @IccsNtua, @EU_Commission

ERIGrid 2.0 supports the upcoming 4th edition of the Expert Workshop on Design and Operation of Digitalized Sector-Coupled Energy Systems (DigiSect 2025), that will be held 📅May 14-15, 2025 in 📍Oldenburg, Germany, organized by OFFIS - Institute for Information Technology, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, Hamburg University of Technology, Hamburger Energienetze GmbH, and supported by: IEEE PES & PELS Chapter Sweden, IEEE Austria Section Power & Energy Society Chapter, IEEE PES Chapter and The ERIGrid 2.0 Project. Following the great success of the previous workshops in Hamburg, Vienna and Stockholm, DIGISect aims again to bring together experts from Europe to exchange insights and create a roadmap on possible trends and research directions for design and operation of digitalization of sector-coupled energy systems and sector integration. 🔗 Read more on DIGISect 2025 here: lnkd.in/eWuNVGYK 🔗 Visit their website for the full program & registration: digisect.eu/

Another ERIGrid 2.0 Success Story!🔍 The project, titled “Open source supervisory control system platform for distribution grid applications,” focused on testing a SCADA platform for microgrid and Virtual Power Plant (VPP) operation. "The ERIGrid 2.0 Lab Access provided invaluable support to our user project [...] The opportunity to access CRES' advanced infrastructure was crucial for evaluating the interoperability of our system with various field devices and commercial inverters. Without ERIGrid 2.0, our project would have faced significant limitations in testing and validating the system in a controlled, realistic setting." - Heybet Kilic 🔗 Learn more about this project here: lnkd.in/eQzkKbQS

Today we would like to highlight another ERIGrid 2.0 Success Story: Resilient Control of Power Inverter Network (RCPIN) 🔍 AIT Austrian Institute of Technology hosted the user group from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden from January to February 2024, at the AIT SmartEST Laboratory. The project was titled: “Resilient Control of Power Inverter Network” (RCPIN). The collaboration led to 1 conference paper: 🧾 Hassan, K., Vettoretti, D., Selvaratnam, D., Sandberg, H., & Pröstl Andren, F. (2024). Resilient Power Inverter Network: A Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation Case Study. in IECON 2024 – 50th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society. 🔗 Learn more about this project and find the conference paper here: lnkd.in/eEjHzSz7
