Recherche & collaboration
Qu’est-ce qui nous rend unique ?
SuperGrid Institute doit son succès aux personnes qui composent nos différents départements de recherche. Nos équipes viennent d’horizons divers, tant industriels qu’universitaires, et la richesse de leur expérience et de leurs compétences rend l’Institut unique.
Chaque personne apporte une expertise spécifique et ce vivier de connaissances offre aux spécialistes de différents domaines la possibilité de collaborer sur des solutions innovantes pour résoudre des problèmes techniques.
L’Institut bénéficie d’étroites relations de collaboration avec des acteurs de l’industrie et des institutions académiques. Alors que les forces complémentaires de nos partenaires apportent des éclairages et des approches innovantes aux défis techniques, nous développons nos départements de recherche en toute indépendance. Des investissements conjoints publics-privés et des projets de collaboration financent le travail.
Les installations de recherche, les plateformes de test et les laboratoires de pointe de SuperGrid Institute sur les sites de Villeurbanne et de Grenoble sont la clé du succès de nos départements de recherche.

Proposition of qualification procedure for MVDC cables
Proposition of qualification procedure for MVDC cables Abstract The medium voltage direct current (MVDC) electric networks are emerging in power distribution and collection, following the expansion of the high voltage direct current (HVDC) in power transmission. The benefits of MVDC can be analyzed in terms of energy efficiency, power dispatch, power capacity, power supply range, raw material consumption, CO2 emissions, network resilience and ancillary services to the AC grid. MVDC transmission has many advantages such as the control of the load flow and the higher transmission capacity, which can be up to 5.7 times in comparison to MVAC systems. The emergence of MVDC systems relies on the development of electric components including power electronic converters, DC switchgear and DC cables. The requirement for these components depends on the MVDC system architecture, control and protection. The development of MVDC systems faces several challenges, including: • Standardization: There is currently no international standard for MVDC systems. This lack of standardization can hinder the development of MVDC systems and make it difficult to compare different technologies. [...]
Generalized Switching Sequence for Voltage Balancing in a Flying Capacitor DC-DC Converter with Quasi-2-Level Modulation
Explore a generalized algorithm for voltage balancing in multilevel flying capacitor (FC) converters used in dual active bridge (DAB) DC-DC converters. This approach balances flying capacitor voltages with a quasi-2-level modulation strategy, offering improved efficiency and stability.
