leXsolar-SmartGrid Ready-to-go 2.0

Function and Applications

The complete set allows the construction of a smart grid with a variety of renewable energy sources on a laboratory scale. It is possible to choose different energy generation profiles and observe their effects on the system. The various storage units and consumers make for a complex smart grid and a multitude of possible scenarios to analyze. The energy flows within the smart grid can be read from the displays of the smartmeters directly. All necessary components for measuring and control are already included. The package includes wind and solar power as well as fuel cell, storage technology and e-mobility components and, thus, also the foundation for a variety of basic experiments.
