The LINTE ^ 2 laboratory enables research and implementation works concerning, inter alia:

  • intelligent power grids (Smart Grids),
  • smart energy "islands" with their own production resources,
  • new network services (electricity demand management, local energy generation, etc.),
  • new designs of power electronic converters and their applications in the power system (FACTS systems, active filters, coupling converters, etc.),
  • charging and using electric vehicles and integrating electric vehicles with the power system,
  • new control methods and algorithms applied to power, power electronics and electromechanical devices,
  • and many other topical issues of modern power engineering.

Testing new solutions can be carried out in simulation, half-simulation (hardware-in-the-loop) and real-time experiments. Wind farm and turbine emulators provide excellent research opportunities for mathematical models of wind and steam turbines.

The laboratory control system creates perfect conditions for research on real-time communication in distributed industrial automation systems, as well as for the development of selected aspects of SCADA systems and human-machine interfaces.
