The electric grid is rapidly becoming more complex as centralized, fossil-based generators are replaced by renewable, inverter-based resources, such as solar PV. The inherent variability of renewable ...

Hardware-in-the-loop testing equips innovators to de-risk schemes prior to deployment on the grid by connecting real devices to a simulated power system, running on a real-time simulator, in the ...

Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing involves simulation of power plant behavior using the actual site-specific power plant controls before the commissioning stage. HIL testing can benefit all project ...

Several years ago, Microsoft Research offered an open-sourced tool called AirSim, which was a simulator for drones, cars and other autonomous vehicles. After years of experimentation, Microsoft ended ...

Virtual emulation reduces costs to about one-tenth of physical hardware, offering a more scalable and flexible solution for ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

How the challenges of electric-motor control design can be overcome using digital twins in all design and test phases. How automated testing within a continuous and integrated toolchain is able to ...
