Electrical engineering consultancy for energy since 2017

Grid connection for your distributed generation, from study to commissioning.

Connecting generation or storage to the grid, or designing the test bench for tomorrow's technologies: it is the same trade, power electrical engineering and its control. We cover it end to end, independently of manufacturers.

What we do

One expertise, two fields of application

Core business

Grid connection of distributed generation

Bringing generation or storage onto the grid, end to end: connection study, engineering, protection studies, compliance and remote control, tendering, site supervision, testing and commissioning. Whatever the technology, the approach is the same.

For research

Test benches and research equipment

The same skills serving universities and research centres, which test in the lab what will be connected tomorrow: motor test benches, power electronics, experimental storage, custom electronics.

    Engineering

    Single-line diagram, connection substation, medium-voltage network, calculation notes.

  3. 03

    Protection and compliance

    Selectivity, relay settings, C10/11 compliance, DSO remote control.

  4. 04

    Tendering

    Specifications, bill of quantities, analysis of contractor bids.

  5. 05

    Site supervision

    Site visits, reports, coordination between contractors and grid operator.

  6. 06

    Testing and commissioning

    Tests with the grid operator, compliance inspection, certification.

For research

Custom test benches and equipment for laboratories

We design, build and deliver one-of-a-kind equipment for universities and research centres, often through public procurement: from study to commissioning.

  • Test benches for power electronics and conversion
  • Experimental storage: second-life and redox flow batteries, from a few tens to a hundred kWh
  • Automation and data acquisition
  • Custom electronics: boards, prototypes, assembly and testing
  • Battery test prototypes for advanced control strategies
