The CSGriP project (Cellular Smart Grid Platform)

by

The Cellular Smart Grid Platform (CSGriP) project aimed to make the electricity grid more reliable by using the grid frequency as communication signal between autonomous cells. By using the grid frequency as a control signal for prosumers (i.e. producers and consumers), no other communication (central or external) is required for safe and reliable operation (e.g. […]

Storage wind power in cold or heat

by

The Lelystad food companies MARFO and McCain would like to know whether it is interesting to directly link the wind energy from Wageningen University & Research to the production of frozen meals and fries respectively. Together with Sparkling projects, ACRRES carries out a feasibility study showing whether a direct link with wind energy is viable. […]

NetWORK

by

Innovative NetWORK examines regional energy systems to fit wind and solar energy more efficiently into the power grid using storage. In the coming decade a very large capacity of wind energy will be realised in Flevoland. There is strong growth in solar energy as well. The integration of this unpredictable energy puts great demands on […]

Test Location Lelystad Zonneweide (solar field)

by

Since 2011, ACRRES has been testing, monitoring, demonstrating and comparing the profitability of different types of solar panels and free field installations on the Zonneweide (solar field) in Lelystad. The results are publicly available. There is room on the Zonneweide to test and demonstrate new systems. For more information please contact Joanneke Spruijt, tel.: 0320-291357.

Test site Lelystad Wind Energy

by

This project involves the installation and testing of (non-certified) test turbines of 2-3 MW in co-operation with Ecofys and Enercon. The new generation of wind turbines with a tip height of up to 200 meters are on the test site. In addition to certification and research for new materials, research is done into the integration […]

Smart Grid in Balance

by

The current electricity network is expected to be struggling in the future to absorb the large amounts of renewable energy and the peak usage by electric cars. How can you better coordinate and regulate the production of, and demand for, renewable energy? And how can new technologies, such as ICT, be used to manage the […]
