Super Home Smart Inverter for Irish Electricity Network

Project Timeline: January 2024 – December 2026
Funding Body: Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) RD&D Funding Programme
Role: Collaborator

To accelerate the decarbonisation of integrated energy systems, conventional homes are being upgraded to "Super Homes" by introducing Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). This transformation is essential for a sustainable future but requires advanced management systems to handle the complexity of modern energy grids.

  • ✓ Distributed Energy Resources (DERs): Integration of Solar PV, Energy Storage, Heat Pumps, and Electric Vehicles.
  • ✓ Smart Inverter Technology: Advanced inverters capable of seamless grid integration and management.
Project Aims
  • • Developing a smart inverter compatible with the Irish Low Voltage Distribution Network (LVDN).
  • • Designing an efficient home energy management system to lower consumer costs.
  • • Empowering energy citizens and expediting the adoption of DERs to reduce carbon emissions.
