2023: Product Announcement
At the end of October 2023, the Moscow Energy Institute (MPEI) announced the creation of a software and apparatus complex for integrating renewable energy sources (RES) into traditional energy systems. The novelty is a microcontroller for controlling converters at generating facilities based on renewable energy sources. The microcontroller implements an algorithm that simulates the operation of a synchronous generator with a given moment of inertia.
According to the developers, the main function of PAC is to give renewable energy sources the electromechanical properties of synchronous generators, which are installed at most electric plants, since it is their properties that determine the characteristics of electric power systems.
The complex applied the method of virtual inertia systems, which consists of devices and algorithms that convert direct current into alternating current of industrial frequency, simulating the inertial response in electric power systems.
According to Nikolai Rogalev, rector of MPEI, the development and subsequent introduction of a software and hardware complex will ensure a reduction in technological restrictions on the share of renewable energy sources in the structure of electricity generation in existing electric power systems (EES).
 | Scientists of NRU "MPEI" were able to find a solution to a very important problem... The software and hardware complex will make it possible not only to integrate power plants based on renewable energy sources into the traditional energy system, but also to allow such facilities to provide system services, Rogalev added. |  |
The system was created by scientists of the Department of Electric Power Systems of the National Research University "MPEI" Maxim Burmeister, Ilya Berdyshev and Ramis Bulatov under the guidance of Ph.D., Associate Professor, Deputy Head of the Department Rinat Nasyrov.[1]
