The IEEE eGrid 2023 Workshop will be held at KIT on 16th-18th October 2023. The eGrid2023 Workshop is a single-track industrial workshop where experts from industry and international labs will hold plenary speeches, tutorials, and panels on the last insights on theory, modelling, analysis, design and development, testing, and integration of power electronics-based power systems.

A sustainable energy supply requires the expansion of electricity grids. However, new lines can also lead to grids becoming more unstable rather than more stable as expected. The phenomenon is called the Braess paradox. An international team, including experts from KIT and FZJ, has now simulated this in detail for electricity grids for the first time, demonstrated it on a larger scale and developed a prediction tool.

In the energy system of the future, Germany will have to import green hydrogen from other countries. The Research Centre Jülich (FZJ) has investigated the potential of sub-Saharan Africa and created a hydrogen atlas for Africa.
