The ACES project reached the first important Milestone in the project: Pre-Studies, Requirement Analysis and Test Procedures defined. The project team delivered the Requirement Specification for the Adaptive Control System, power quality measurement, battery health sensors and the demonstrator sites at VänerEnergi, Glava Energy Center and Fraunhofer IFF. The team…

(swedish article in Arvika nyheter 2019-07-23) Utvecklingen får framåt i rask takt vad gäller forskning kring solenergi. På Glava Energy Center testas det just nu hur batterilager på bästa sätt kan användas för ändamålet.– När det inte är soligt är det viktigt att kunna lagra energin, säger Johan Ericson, nybliven…

(Article in Swedish, published in www.kau.se Karlstad University) Forskare vid Karlstads universitet utvecklar avancerade kontrollmetoder baserad på biologiskt inspirerade principer för att optimera flexibla och robusta energisystem. Forskningen ingår i det internationella projektet ACES, Adaptive Control of Energy Storage. Det långsiktiga målet är att möjliggöra en högre andel förnybar elproduktion.…

Fraunhofer IFF has now started to prepare for the demonstrators for ACES. The battery storage equipment was transported to the new laboratory site. Looking forward to starting implementing the ACES demonstrator. More info about Fraunhofer Institute for Factory Operation and Automation:  www.iff.fraunhofer.de Previous Next

Hosted by WSP, ACES gathered at in Stockholm for a 2-day workshop on selection of Use Cases and translation of these into scenarios, storylines, a system architecture and requirement specification for our starting concept: a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for the adaptive control system. Energy levels were sky-high, the ACES…

On invitation by the Swedish Energy Agency and branch organization Power Circle, ACES participated with a booth at the ISGAN international workshop with theme: The future of electricity markets in a low carbon economy. Many delegates were eager to learn more about adaptive control of energy storage, and ACES fit…

We are proud to announce that ACES has been selected as showcase project within smart grids by the Swedish Energy Agency’s in the framework of its SamspEL funding programme. More info on www.energimyndigheten.se (only in Swedish) Soon ACES will be added to www.framtidenselsystem.se (a swedish website)

On the 28 of January, ACES’ partners Fraunhofer IFF and MINcom Smart Solutions kicked-off the German part of the project in Magdeburg with representatives from our German funding agency Projektträger Jülich (PtJ), who is managing the project funding on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy…

Under the inspiring lead of Hjalmar Pihl at Research Institute of Sweden (RISE), the ACES team has been working hard on defining an initial set of services and Use Cases. On the 10th of December 2018, the team gathered at the Fraunhofer institute in Berlin to create the initial set…

Now it is time of making battery storage more profitable and realistic! The new project ACES (Adaptive Control of Energy Storage) plans to develop and invest in energy storage and associated equipment for measurement, monitoring and control, and develop and test adaptive optimization algorithms for battery energy storage control, based…
