The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Carnegie Mellon University to develop the technology and operating framework to deploy integrated solar photovoltaics (PV), storage, and load control in an integrated way that realizes greater value than either the individual components deployed on their own or single integrated combinations operating independently of other such deployments.
The project is divided into six tasks to be completed over three budget periods:
Task 1: Design and Development of Distributed Resource Coordination and Control Methodology
Task 2: Software Implementation of Algorithms
Task 3: Cybersecurity Assurance
Task 4: Installation of Physical Components and Test-bed Setup
Task 5: Performance Testing in Test-bed
Task 6: Energy Storage Sub-System and Full System Assessment and Control Optimization
