PV based electrification of the economy: Designing & optimising PV systems supporting industrial electrification and promoting participation in electricity markets (EUPI-PV Partnership)

Design higher voltage system architectures and evaluate the efficiency benefit;

Develop the blueprint for an AC (Alternating Current)/DC hybrid solution for managing end user loads, achieving high levels of efficiency;

Demonstrate a high voltage >3kV operating in DC grids for industrial installations hybrid system;

Investigate the impact of higher voltage on PV modules.

Demonstrate integrated management of PV generators for dynamic and/or nodal pricing;

Pool PV with other consumption/production assets to participate in balancing mechanisms; assess the viability of these systems and demonstrate business models and financing schemes;

Demonstrate reliability, procurement driven risk mitigation and better system availability through digitalization.
