In order to meet the microgrid energy requirements it is necessary to incorporate various generation systems (i.e. several solar panels and several wind turbines). In this way, all of them will deliver, in parallel, the energy to the energy sink (load, storage system or grid). This requires to have parallelized power converters which require new control techniques. These converters must operate in parallel, synchronously with the microgrid, using maximum power extraction algorithms or having the microgrid stability as a target.

The Project is a cross border cooperation project funded by the Aquitaine-Euskadi cooperation common fund with participation of the Ecole Supérieure des Technologies Industrielles Avancées (ESTIA) from Bayonne (France).
