Project EDGE recognizes that as the volume of DER providing services increases, it is important to ensure the integrity of the poles and wires that houses are connected to.It is a world-first project that brings together the spectrum of relevant stakeholders across the electricity value chain: customers, DER owners, aggregators, distributors, the system/market operator and researchers. Several […]
The research group ignited this project by recognizing that since the trend around the world is for EVs charged at home to use fast chargers (~7kW of demand), they clearly are a concern for distribution companies as the extra demand could easily exceed what the poles and wires have been designed for. This multi-disciplinary project […]
The project recognizes the struggle that distribution companies (who manage the poles and wires) cannot have accurate and up-to-date electrical models of their residential areas, known as low voltage (LV) circuits. Without electrical models, it is hard to do what-if calculations for solar PV, electric vehicles, etc. Accordingly, this project is to capture the physics of […]
The objective of the project is to solve the issue of oversized diesel generation units that are not efficiently used. New control strategies and technologies are the aim of the project innovation which can help save fuel and increase reliability. This 21-month project (Mar 2021 to Dec 2022) is funded by QinetiQ Australia and the […]
MSL is structured as four synergistic programs: Research, Innovation, Demonstration and Education (RIDE). For the demonstration part, MSL founding member Santa Fe Community College (SFCC) is developing two microgrids with MSL’s guidance, which will serve as demonstration facilities, while also supporting education, testing, and research. The first is an educational microgrid, or “nanogrid,” dedicated to […]
The objective of Smart Grid Testbed Facility Project is to create a unique set of interconnected and interacting labs in several key measurement areas, especially on the NIST Gaithersburg site—that are expected to accelerate the development of SG interoperability standards by providing a combined testbed platform for system measurements, characterization of smart grid protocols, and […]
Under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), the Smart Grid National Coordination project leads, coordinates and manages the national public-private stakeholder partnership effort for “the development of interoperability standards.” The main target of the project is to ensure that over the next 20 years the smart grids investment in the U.S. will […]

The mission is to strengthen […]
Following the trial run at Shuinan Smart City Taichung, ITRI joined hands with industry players to seize business opportunities in the self-driving market! ITRI announced the signing of a smart cooperation with Mobiletron on January 27. The two parties will jointly build 10 domestic self-driving electric buses by 2021. The first trial production self-driving electric […]
In the global trend of smart driving, the vehicle research and testing center (Vehicle Center) and Qinwei International took the lead in applying for the “Unmanned Vehicle Technology Innovation Experiment Program” of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Please receive the first test of the self-driving sandbox operation regulations The license plate has been officially launched […]
