- Power system protection
- Power electronics HIL tests
At Monash University we aim to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2030, and therefore, the goal is to supply all the energy of the campus by renewable energy resources. As a part of this mission, we're building an on-site microgrid at Monash Clayton campus.
"The microgrid will be operated as a grid connected smart embedded network containing a variety of distributed energy resources (DER) including up to 1MW of rooftop solar, 20 buildings with automated energy management systems, 1 MWh of battery storage and electric vehicle charging stations."
We have a laboratory-scale microgrid consists of 10 kW PV and different battery storage systems to test various operation and control scenarios.
The high voltage laboratory at Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering (ECSE) department of Monash University is equipped with following equipment:
- 300kV, 20kVA transformer
- 300kV, 1.5kJ impulse generator
- 1600kV, 22kJ impulse generator
- +/- 30kV 0-5kHz high-voltage power amplifier
- 400kV DC source
