DEVELOPING THE ELECTRICITY NETWORKS OF THE FUTURE
The Institute
We are an independent innovation and research company dedicated to the development of technologies for the future system of power transmission.
At a time when it is increasingly important to lower our dependency on fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we provide our customers and partners with strong technological innovations to accelerate the development of future power grids and the massive integration of renewable energy.
SuperGrid Institute offers
a complete range of technologies and services
Involved in the ecosystem
Because of our important role in building the network of the future, SuperGrid Institute is involved in many international projects, be it as a partner or a leader.
Our expertise, state-of-the-art testing facilities, and ability to innovate and deliver solutions that meet the needs of the market are increasingly recognised.
Our educational mission
To promote understanding of HVDC and MVDC technologies, we engage in education at every level, from secondary-school to life-long learning. Our engineers work alongside PhD students and interns carrying out applied research that addresses industry needs. We also support educational institutions in developing their own training curricula on MVDC, HVDC and supergrid technologies.

Superconducting fault current limiters – the future of grid protection?
With countries racing to produce more renewable energy and electrifying transport and industry, higher nominal and fault currents in our power grids increase the risk of severe grid accidents. Energy infrastructures must evolve to meet these challenges. At SuperGrid Institute, we have developed a cost-effective, high-performance, and compact solution: the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) prototype. Ask us about it!
