V2G is a system where EVs interact with the power grid, allowing bidirectional energy transfer between them to balance demand and supply
Vehicle to Everything (V2X)
The integration of EV to the grid creates new applications as vehicle to home/ building, vehicle to load, vehicle to vehicle, etc... included in V2X
EVSE MODE 2 TEST PLATFORM FOR TYPE 2 CHARGING CABLES
EVSE MODE 3 TEST PLATFORM FOR WALL CHARGERS
EVSE MODE 4 TEST PLATFORM FOR DC CHARGERS
MULTISTANDARD EVSE
Smart Grids
Smart grids require power electronics and ICT ( Information and Communication Technology) to manage energy flows and ensure the quality and continuity of the electric supply.
Our units can emulate the electrical behaviour of a variety of elements connected to a Smart Grid or Microgrid: the utility grid itself, distributed energy resources (Photovoltaic, Wind Plants...), loads (houses, buildings) or bidirectional devices such as ESS or smart EV chargers.
SUITABLE PRODUCTS
GE AC/DC for votage or DC
EL AC/DC for current or DC
GE&EL AC/DC for non-simultaneous use
(suitable in all applications)
PHiL
Real Time Simulation Systems and Power Converters are converging in the field known as Power Hardware in the Loop (PHiL) in which a real world system is simulated on a real-time basis and then emulated: converted in real voltage, current and power.
The Rack Series can be used in Power Amplifier mode, which transforms the reference signal generated by the real time simulator into a voltage or current waveform.

Renewables & ESS
Energy storage systems (ESS) typically involve three components:
(1) an electrical grid for importing and exporting energy
(2) a DC storage system
(3) loads or a microgrid that integrates both generation and consumption.
With our extensive experience in this field, we provide comprehensive testing solutions for these systems.

User Interface
Designed by Engineers for Engineers
CINEINA is the software user interface supplied with every CINERGIA device, fully developed by our R&D team to provide full control over the unit.
Its intuitive and user-friendly design allows to efortlessly use the device’s multiple functionalities, ensuring a minimal learning curve for both new and experienced users.
Features
Supervision
The Supervision tab offers comprehensive oversight of the unit’s operation. All data is logged and graphed to monitor performance and ensure optimal functionality.
The Supervision window can be undock into a different screen for better overall control.
Plots
Record and track the unit’s operation during testing with the Plots tab. This function is embedded in the unit and does not require any external devices or an internet connecton.
All activity data is saved in convenient .csv files, ready for immediate plotting or download for later in-depth analysis.
1 Channel Mode
As a grid simulator, the device can be controlled in 1 Channel mode where the 3 output phases are internally short-circuited, in order to be suitable for single phase applications.
Contact us for power derating in AC 1 Channel Mode. No power derating in AC 3 Channel or DC.
AC
AC Operation
Each phase can be independently configured: RMS current, frequency, phase delay, harmonics distortion, as well as the ramps associated with each mentioned variable. The expected waveform is plotted, the FFT is represented and the numeric data shown: RMS, peak, CF and THD.
Harmonics
The CINEINA software allows the generation of sub harmonics, interharmonics and high frequency harmonics up to the 50th, setting both magnitud and phase delay. Harmonic sequences can be saved and loaded as .csv files to ease testing standarization.
Disturbance Generation
The AC fault panel is a powerful yet intuitive editor which allows generation of distorted waveforms: flicker, voltage dip, frequency and voltage variations... Specific profiles can be saved in .csv f iles, modified and reused by importing an existing one.
DC
DC Operation
The DC Unipolar/Bipolar panel is where the setpoints and limits are Each of the 3 channels can work simultaneously in a different Operation Voltage, Resistance, Emulation, Current, Battery PV Emulation... Transition ramps, voltage and current limits can be adjusted individually to ensure safe testing, particularly in battery applications.
Sequence
CINEINA includes a Test Editor with the purpose of designing and/or importing automated sequence tests, which can later be exported as .csv files. A smart datalogger can be set to automatically save voltage, current and power measurements with a 400ms time resolution.
Multichannel
Enabling the Separated Channel Control converts the device in three functionally independent DC Bidirectional Power Supplies, sharing the common negative rail. Each channel can have a different status (ON, OFF, Warning, Alarm), Operation Mode (see Range and Specifications table), Setpoint, Ramp and Limits.
Battery Pack Tester
An integrated software designed for testing charge/ discharge battery cycles. Thanks to the Multichannel, 3 batteries or battery packs can be tested simultaneously. Test parameters such as charge/ discharge current, float, boost voltage, number of cycles... can be adjusted for monthslong tests.
Battery Emulation
The unit incorporates a mathematical model in order to emulate the behaviour of real batteries or battery packs. Defining the characteristic parameters enables the simulation of different battery technologies (LiIon, NiMH, NiCd, Pb...).
All within one unit!
PV Panel Emulation
Based on a single-diode equivalent circuit, the PV Emulation mode allows the virtual simulation of solar arrays. The PV Panel characteristic parameters, string configuration, irradiance and temperature values can be defined or exported from a .csv f ile for flexible testing.

SiC Technology
Transitioning to SiC technology results in an increased switching frequency of the converter, which translates into higher dynamics, faster transients and enhanced performance, making it the perfect candidate for EoL enviroments, R+D, Validation and Power Hardware in The Loop (PHiL) testing.
The faster switching time of the SiC MOSFETS reduces the current-voltage crossover duration, and therefore the losses at each commutation, improving overall efficiency.
