Project scope
The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology（AIST)
Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute, AIST (FREA) is developing energy management and peripheral technologies for solar power, wind power, hydrogen, geothermal, etc., in order to promote the spread of renewable energy both domestically and internationally, and has installed our 5 MVA simulator system, which has the know-how to accurately reproduce the characteristics and conditions of each energy source for power conditioners.
As a result, verification and evaluation tests of grid-connected power conditioners with a large capacity of 3MW (megawatts) have become possible.
System breakdown and Features
The simulator system is indispensable for testing and evaluating grid-connected power conditioners. We have the know-how to accurately reproduce the characteristics and conditions of each energy source for power conditioners for various new energies such as solar cells, fuel cells, wind power generation, and small hydroelectric power generation, and contribute to power conditioner evaluation organizations and power conditioner manufacturers.
AC simulator 5MVA
This equipment recreates the changes of grid voltage such as frequency fluctuation or power failure, to test the behavior and performance of the power conditioner under various conditions. By superimposing up to 40 high harmonics, it can reproduce real-life DC waveforms.
DC simulator 3MW
Can recreate power output fluctuations of an abnormality, or fluctuations of wind or solar power generation due to various climatic conditions.
RLC artificial load 3MVA
To evaluate the operation of the system interconnection protective equipment, the RLC artificial load produces power and balanced load conditions.
Measurement System
Its role is to record and measure the PCS performance and test them effortlessly under a wide range of parameters.

The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)
As one of the largest public research institutes in Japan, we focus on the creation and practical application of technologies that are useful to Japanese industry and society, as well as the "bridging" function to connect the seeds of innovative technologies to commercialization. In order to build a sustainable society, they aim to realize a prosperous and environmentally friendly society through green technology and a healthy and safe life through life technology.
Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute, AIST (FREA)
Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute, AIST (FREA) was opened in April 2014 in response to the government's "Basic Policy for Reconstruction from the Great East Japan Earthquake" (July 2011).
With the mission of "promoting renewable energy research and development open to the world" and "contributing to reconstruction through the accumulation of new industries", they are working together with many people from Japan and abroad.
