The core objective of EMPIR project <link research-innovation search-research-projects details>‘Traceability routes for electrical power quality measurements’ (15RPT04, TracePQM) is to develop a novel traceable accurate measurement system for power and power quality measurements that is accessible throughout Europe.
The Renewable Energy Directive requires the EU to fulfil at least 20 % of its final energy consumption with renewable sources by 2020. However, increasing numbers of decentralised renewable sources can cause a deterioration in the grid’s power quality and demands are increasing for traceable, accurate measurements of power and power quality.
Successful implementation of the new measurement system developed by this project will pave the way for increased adoption of renewable energy across Europe.
The workshop
Results from the project will be presented at the Final Dissemination Workshop, which is open to all.
Topics to include:
Good Practice Guide entitled ‘Guide for Sampling Power and Power Quality Measurements’ soon to be made available via the project website.
