Electric systems for energy and transportation (ESET)

The Electric Systems for Energy and Transportation (ESET) group focuses on technologies and strategies for energy management and sustainable mobility, addressing both current and future challenges. Key research areas include the integration of renewable energy sources into the electrical grid, the development of smart grids, microgrids, and advanced energy storage systems. 

The group studies solutions to optimise final energy use and plans infrastructure for electric vehicle charging, evaluating its impact on the electric grid. The goal is to contribute to the transition towards sustainable and resilient energy systems, addressing the complexities related to the interaction between energy supply and demand. Activities also include electricity market analysis and the development of innovative technologies to improve efficiency and reduce emissions, promoting a greener and more connected future.
