This project aims to research modifications to the electrical grid in the form of microgrid architecture for better use of renewable energy.Electrical supply grid and energy management systems designed for traditional centralised power generation, transmission and distribution increasingly use renewable energy sources. A redesigned grid, based on microgrid architectures using the proposed optimisation techniques, is expected to save money and renew the grid’s infrastructure. This should also allow better use of renewable energy sources to meet Australia’s electrical power requirements.Read moreRead less
Innovations in stability, reliability and protection of electric power distribution systems to enable increased use of green energy. This project will develop the innovative concepts necessary to increase the number of renewable energy sources in electric power distribution systems. The aim is to enable systems with a distributed mix of conventional rotary generators and renewable converter interfaced generators to operate safely and to required standards of reliability.
