AB Destekli Diğer Projeler, 2016 - 2019
The project will facilitate the design, development and demonstration of a future-proof active smart micro-grid
system to integrate and optimise multiple small to medium sized energy sources and loads. The overarching
objective is to capitalise on the availability of local and large renewable energy resources and adapting them
for solutions to sustainability in terms of electric power demand and supply. A demo smart micro-grid system
will be built integrating all energy components, in an effort to (i) maximise renewable energy utilisation, (ii)
reduce the carbon footprint by minimising consumption, (iii) improve the power quality while ensuring
economic feasibility, and (iv) replicate similar setups to institutions and commercial and rural sites.
3D-Mgrid shall undertake a detailed campus assessment of existing energy scenarios, including: energy
consumption; diesel consumption and generation efficiency; loads and their classification; consumption
patterns such as human presence and behaviour; power quality with respect to grid power, switching
between various distributed power sources, and techno-commercial assessment. 3D-Mgrid will also assess
other studies related to the establishment and justification of a smart micro-grid while utilising various
equipment, sensors, meters, hardware, and software for measuring, monitoring and analysing the required
data to undertake the study.
Different power saving strategies will be envisaged, including load/demand forecasting; renewable energy
generation forecasting, integration with weather sensors; utility grid’s power outage pattern identification;
prioritizing loads and exercising the option of demand response; identifying the appropriate distributed
generator to turn-on; and exercising the option of storage technology utilization of appropriate size. It is
expected that the 3D-Mgrid will provide distinct benefits like energy savings, frequency support, and demand
side management.
