Project

Realize a power distribution platform His research involves technologies for safety connecting home-mounted generators such as solar power to the power system. He developed an analysis tool for voltage that enters households from households (Comprehensive Analysis Tool of Power Distribution System or CALDG), and made it possible to simulate the effect of solar power installed in each household on the system. He is also at the forefront of power distribution researchers and aims to realize a power distribution platform which is a vital aspect in the transformation of the electric industry.
CALDG
In recent years, there has been concern that the interconnection of dispersion power sources (DG), such as photovoltaic power generation (PV), will expand, and that the power-factor improvement capacitor (SC) installed in high-voltage consumers will affect the voltage management of the distribution system. Given this, he has been developing a tool that allows easy operation with GUI and can simulate voltage control of distribution system, voltage control of PV, and SC control of consumers.
