RESEARCH & PRACTICE
Deployed functions, reported operating experience and topics for further investigation.
We integrate equipment information from the three resources through a shared EMS for monitoring and manual operation. The operating conditions provide a basis for further control-strategy research and validation.
We have deployed load and PV generation forecasting at the site. Collaborative studies can define forecasting horizons, baselines and evaluation periods to examine model performance and operating conditions.
We operated the bridge microgrid without grid parallel connection for approximately six months, supplying DC and AC chargers. Battery depletion caused one supply interruption; operation resumed after reconnection. This experience informs our study of storage capacity, charging demand and energy management.
Our laboratory developed EV operation and payment management using existing LINE Pay accounts, connecting energy management with the charging service experience.
The existing OpenDSS materials use campus resources as teaching cases for component modelling, time-series simulation and student presentations. Model parameters must be interpreted within each lesson, rather than as as-built specifications.
FIELD MEDIA / 2026
We use monitoring, forecasting and 3D visualization to present the site’s energy information. These images from our exchange presentations document past demonstrations, not live readings.
I served as co-principal investigator and subproject principal investigator in the NSTC project on interdisciplinary integration of virtual power plant technologies and collaborative industry innovation (1/2), for the period 1 July 2025–30 June 2026.
