Introduction

Research and development in SAES focuses on the development and validation of modeling and simulation tools for analysis and design of small-scale autonomous energy systems.

Current Projects

Current projects in the SAES Consortium include the following:

  • Anti-idling technologies for Class 8 tractor trailers
  • Field test of a residential CHP system, accompanied by laboratory testing of the same CHP system
  • Development of 5 kW tactical fuel cell running on JP8
  • Development of software for the analysis design and systematic of small autonomous energy systems using genetic and/or gradient based optimization algorithms.
