Increasing Distribution Resiliency Using Flexible Distributed Energy Resources and Microgrid Assets Enabled by OpenFMB

Close

This project aims to accelerate the concept of deploying a resilient and secure distribution system with flexible operation of traditional assets, distributed energy resources, and microgrids using OpenFMB. OpenFMB is a framework that allows for loosely coupled, peer-to-peer messaging for fielded devices and systems at the grid's edge. Treating distributed energy resources and microgrids as boundary conditions will enable greater system flexibility through the use of settings that observe grid behaviors and adapt appropriately based off of the observations.
