The THEUS project has published a new video showcasing its ambition to build more resilient, interoperable AC/DC energy grids across Europe. You can watch it here.
In addition, a new scientific publication on “Advancing Hybrid AC/DC Microgrid Converters: Modeling, Control Strategies, and Fault Behavior Analysis” has been published. It explores the transition of hybrid AC/DC microgrids toward intelligent, software-defined converter functions and virtualisation techniques, such as virtual inertia, to overcome the stability limitations of low-inertia renewable integration.

The first scientific publication of the FLAGCHIP project presents an innovative approach to condition monitoring for electrical infrastructure, supporting the transition towards a net-zero economy. The paper explores the use of Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors for electrically isolated, high-accuracy temperature measurement directly on semiconductor chip surfaces. Unlike conventional temperature-sensitive electrical parameters, FBG sensors are immune to electromagnetic interference and unaffected by device ageing. The study demonstrates on-chip FBG temperature measurement during power cycling of silicon diode test vehicles, analysing transient response accuracy and outlining mitigation strategies and future improvements.
