Conference on DC Distribution Grids
DC transmission technology has been successfully applied at the high-voltage level for many years. Its advantages have also been demonstrated in industrial settings, as exemplified by the DC Industry 1 and 2 projects.
The direct integration of renewable energy sources, as well as the connection of storage systems and loads to DC grids, has sparked increased discussion and a re-evaluation of the potential of DC technology for the distribution of electrical energy. Inspired by larger industrial installations, the shared use of DC infrastructure is becoming increasingly important for medium-sized enterprises. Furthermore, advancements in DC technology are opening up numerous new applications for the distribution of electrical energy at medium- and low-voltage levels.
The questions and challenges arising for components and systems in this context are presented at the conference, along with current solution approaches and ongoing developments.
Objective
The conference is aimed at research institutions, manufacturers, end-users, consulting firms, and other relevant organizations. DC distribution grids, from system-level considerations to individual components in various configurations,will be discussed in depth.
The conference provides a platform for presenting and discussing current issues inboth practical applications and research. Lectures and poster presentations serve as stimuli for discussions on current and future challenges as well aspotential solutions. Additionally, the event offers opportunities to exchange experiences in an open and collaborative atmosphere.
