The application of DC grids is gaining more attention in office applications. Especially since powering an office desk would not require a high power connection to the main AC grid but could be made sustainable using solar power and battery storage. This would result in fewer converters and further advanced …

Residential electricity distribution grid capacity is based on the typical peak load of a house and the load simultaneity factor. Historically, these values have remained predictable, but this is expected to change due to increasing electric heating using heat pumps and rooftop solar panel electricity …

The Smart Current Limiter is a switching DC to DC converter that provides a digitally pre-set input current control for inrush limiting and power management. Being able to digitally adjust the current level in combination with external feedback can be used for control systems like temperature control …

Droop control is used for power management in DC grids. Based on the level of the DC grid voltage, the amount of power regulated to or from the appliance is regulated such, that power management is possible. The Universal 4 Leg is a laboratory setup for studying the functionality of a grid manager for …

Electric vehicles and renewable energy sources are collectively being developed as a synergetic implementation for smart grids. In this context, smart charging of electric vehicles and vehicle-to-grid technologies are seen as a way forward to achieve economic, technical and environmental benefits. The …
