Sandia's microgrid research and development addresses real-time controls, operational optimization, power electronics, protection standards, and community resilience methods and tools.
As one of the premier applied engineering research centers in distributed energy resources and microgrids, we are building the human and operational capacity needed for a secure, resilient, and carbon-free electric grid in the 21st century.
PV-VR is an application that uses a scale model of the PART lab for educational interactive lab tours in virtual reality (VR). The actual PV solar power plant is virtualized and virtual representations of all the objects in the plant are inserted into the application.
Transformers play a critical role in ensuring the seamless operation of microgrids and DES by managing voltage levels, enabling load sharing, and integrating renewable energy sources.
