In this summer semester, 18 students participated in the Smart Energy System Lab, which is already in its third round and is funded as part of the “Research Infrastructures in Research-Oriented Teaching (RI-RO Teaching)” project.

Master's students from the fields of computer science, electrical and information technology, mechatronics, and mechanical engineering engaged in 9 different projects during this round, receiving strong support from our researchers.

As part of the laboratory, two students developed a simulator capable of simulating an electrical vehicle connected to a charging station. This EV simulator now allows our researchers to conduct valuable tests on real wall charging stations (so-called wall boxes) for device-under-test-scenarios.

Additionally, leveraging the data from the laboratories of the Smart Energy System Simulation and Control Center (SEnSSiCC) and the experimental buildings of the Living Lab Energy Campus (LLEC), two students were able to visualize the energy flows of the entire Energy Lab. The user-friendly dashboards created using Grafana software are now available to researchers and visitors of the Energy Lab.

All the final presentations of the projects showed the potential and innovation of the students, who were able to gain important insights through the support of our researchers.

We would like to thank the motivated students for a successful time!
