DP3 – Fast Dynamic Energy Management with Phasor Measurement Units
Overall objective: Large research infrastructures like accelerators need a stable and responsive energy supply. DP3 explores how Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) can improve real-time monitoring and control of power systems to increase energy efficiency and resilience.
Design of future accelerators considering power electronics and DC grids
Integration of dynamic Phasor Measurement Units in energy control of accelerators
Demonstrator project realization for the integration of a PMU-based system at CERN
DP3
Specific objective:
Enhance power grid stability and energy efficiency by enabling real-time detection and response to disturbances using PMU technology.
Demonstrator set-up:
At CERN, with support from Zaphiro, PMUs have been deployed to monitor the internal power grid in real time. The system will give operators extra information about disturbances, which they can compare with traditional monitoring tools. Validating the reliability of the recorded data will help build trust in the solution and encourage wider use of PMUs.
Expected results:
- Validation of PMU functionality through real-time dashboards
- High-precision detection and identification to power grid issues
- Extending the power quality disturbance understanding via accurate event classification and working towards building an immunity curve and increasing grid resilience
