It is dedicated to research and development in modern energy systems with a strong focus on advanced control algorithms, optimization in energy management and digitalization of smart grids. The lab supports comprehensive studies of cellular-based power systems, active distribution networks, microgrids, and flexible energy systems. Equipped with a four-quadrant power amplifier (15 kVA, DC to 150 kHz), programmable DC sources, advanced measurement equipment and real-time simulation tools (e.g., OPAL-RT, Typhoon HIL), it enables dynamic testing of controllers, power electronics, battery systems, PV systems and distributed energy configurations. Current developments include extending the infrastructure to integrate grid-tied battery systems, electrolyzer and fuel cell systems (2026), alongside a power amplifier expansion up to 300 kVA. The laboratory is a hub for R&D industry collaboration on innovative technologies such as digital twins, advanced harmonic load control, and flexible AC distribution systems. It plays a key role in supporting research in: Real-time P-HIL testing and validation, automation technologies for energy systems, power quality (harmonics) analysis and mitigation, and integration of storage and conversion systems into resilient future energy networks.</p> <p>This laboratory is part of the Bremer Forschungszentrum für Energiesysteme (BEST).
