Programmable emulators

The DS02 family of emulators is a power electronics based platform that can emulate DC and AC generation, storage, load and grid system.

This family comprises a complete set of power emulators ready to be integrated in any research microgrid to simplify and speed-up your research.

Different devices can be managed from a unique station with the emulation control supervision software for microgrid research.This family is able to synthesize any I-V characteristic up to 400 V_AC and 600 V_DC with 20 kVA, 40 kVA, 60 kVA and 80 kVA power range.

It is the perfect equipment when doing research in AC and DC microgrids or testing integration of renewable energy into the grid.
