European Research Infrastructure supporting Smart Grid and Smart Energy Systems Research, Technology Development, Validation and Roll Out – Second Edition

The ERIGrid 2.0 project, based on the results from the ERIGrid-1 project, aims to expand the research services and tools of European research infrastructures for validating smart energy networks.

  

The target of the ERIGrid 2.0 project is to provide an integrated European Smart Grid Research to foster system-level support and education for industrial and academic researchers in power and energy systems research and technology development through a holistic and cyber-physical systems-based validation approach.
To tackle this aim, the ERIGrid 2.0 project widened and improved the provided lab access to fulfil the challenging goals of the European Union towards a clean, secure, and efficient energy transition to face climate and energy challenges. ERIGrid 2.0 is a single-entry point for researchers active in smart grids, smart energy systems, and integration of renewables, as it offers a broad spectrum of advanced services, methods, and tools.
Led by the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, the European consortium of innovative research and development laboratories offers research infrastructure of the ERIGrid 2.0 partners to researchers and experts for developing, testing and validating modern power supply systems, the integration of renewable energies, the digitalization of the networks and intelligent energy systems. All in all, 21 smart grid and smart energy systems laboratories and 8 facilities with virtual access are available free-of-charge for successful applicants from all over the world to advance their own research.
