Research Laboratory I
Established and funded by REC Transmission Projects Company Limited (Period: 2017-19) for the project titled as “Synchrophasor Sensing and Seamless Control of Smart Distribution Network with Renewable Energy Integration”. Experimental setup under this project is Solar PV and 10KW Inverter, DG setup and Battery bank, three-phase MLI. Under this project, four JRFs are working, and they have published their research works in the reputed/indexed journals such as IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics and Industrial Application Society etc. and IEEE Conference paper.
Research Laboratory II
Funded by DST and has experimental setups related to renewable energy integration. It includes a grid-connected wind turbine emulator using a DC motor coupled with a permanent magnet synchronous generator, a photovoltaic (PV) array, a bidirectional buck-boost converter, a DC-DC boost converter, and a Vienna rectifier. Each component plays a crucial role in exploring the integration of renewable energy sources into existing power systems. Also, a Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES) system emulator is used through a meticulously designed setup. This setup includes a brushless DC (BLDC) motor coupled with a direct current (DC) machine controlled by a two-level inverter and chopper. Adding to the system's versatility and precision, an FPGA board takes charge of managing system control, ensuring optimal performance.
