Our field of research is orientated to the current challenges and innovation of electrical energy systems :
- The development and design of large scale transmission systems (e.g. Electricity Highways, Offshore-Grids, etc.)
- Design and integration of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems and Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS)
- System integration of centralised and decentralised renewables, in particular, wind, photovoltaic and solar thermal power plants
- Innovative storage concepts for volatile energy sources and their integration into the network
- Intelligent and future-orientated operation and management of transmission grids in a deregulated environment
- "Smart Energy Systems“: interaction and repercussions of decentralised systems on the transmission.
