5th E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium
In partnership with Energynautics, we’re excited to announce the 5th E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium. The purpose of the E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium is to discuss the challenges that arise with increased power demand due to electric vehicle charging, and how they can be met by coordinating with renewable power production in the electrical system (hence the combination with the Solar & Wind Integration Workshop). The selection of topics also highlights the need for integrating the required electric vehicle…

In partnership with Energynautics, we’re excited to announce the 11th International Workshop on Integration of Solar Power & Storage into Power Systems. One special focus of the Solar Integration Workshop will be storage integration. Many renewable energy sources like solar and wind energy produce variable power. Storage systems provide a way to level out the imbalances between supply and demand. Thus, electricity production need not be drastically scaled up and down to meet momentary consumption. Instead, transmission from the combination…
