The Electric Power Systems Research Group (GISEL) has been working for over a decade on the development of technologies aimed at making the electrical grid more efficient, cleaner, and smarter. Its research focuses on three key areas: integration of renewable energy sources, microgrids, and power system protection. GISEL maintains close collaboration with the local energy industry, participates in research projects at the regional, national, and European levels, and actively contributes to the training of new generations of researchers. We invite you to explore the different sections of our website to learn more about who we are, our research activities, and the projects we are working on.

Real-Time Simulation: A Key Tool in Electrical Engineering Education
First publication date: 29/05/2025
Unai Villena Camarero, member of the Electrical Power Systems Research Group (GISEL) at UPV/EHU, has published an article in the blog of the European project SUNRISE entitled "Real-Time Simulation as a Tool in Electrical Engineering Education."
In the article, he highlights how real-time simulation has become a fundamental tool for research, development, and training in electrical systems. This technology enables the emulation of the behavior of electrical components and networks in realistic scenarios, allowing for validation and analysis without the risks associated with physical test environments.
The article also emphasizes the role of this methodology in academic training, allowing students to work with complex models and operational scenarios that closely reflect real system behavior. At GISEL, the use of this technology has been promoted in academic projects such as Bachelor's and Master's theses, offering students an advanced educational experience aligned with the challenges of modern and sustainable power networks.
