Abstract

This paper introduces a platform for real time simulation and its contribution towards smart grid related research, with focus on Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) charging stations. The current system is able to simulate in real time key elements of a smart grid such as: high speed power electronics, distributed energy resources (DER), and communication networks. A description of the platform for real time simulation is presented along with the integration of communication emulation; achieved through OPNET's System in the Loop (SITL) package. In addition, an introduction to Networked Control Systems (NCS) is presented and a case study of PHEV charging stations which displays the latest results accomplished with the current setup.
