| Title | Feasibility study of combined heat and power for smart grids and microgrids using HOMER Grid |
| Summary | Homer Grid combines engineering and economics to quickly perform complex calculations enabling users to compare design outcomes and consider options for minimizing project risk and reducing energy expenditures. Homer Grid allows users to include any combination of components such as EV charging, battery, solar, wind, generator, CHP and gives users the total energy cost for each possible system. Previously, Phase 1 project conducted a detailed EV study on the SIT Punggol Campus, and Phase 2 project conducted a detailed EV study on carbon-free Jeju Island 2030 Microgrid. In this project, the student will examine the feasibility of combined heat and power for other systems such as Danone’s Microgrid in South Africa, University of Montana’s CHP Microgrid, Tuas Nexus Integrated Waste Management Facility, Punggol Digital District Smart Grid. Th software is located in Clean Energy Research Laboratory (CERL) S2-b7c-05. Students with a good background in power engineering and have an interest in simulation and EVs are encouraged to apply. |
