UNIGE-DITEN is a university department with a strong focus on research and development in electric energy, automation, electronics, and naval engineering at national and international levels. In the electric energy sector, we specialize in modeling, managing, and controlling the production, transmission, distribution, and utilization of electric energy, particularly in large transmission and distribution industrial energy efficient systems.
We work on advanced methodologies and technologies, including power electronics and ICT. We are have real-time simulators for hardware-in-the-loop studies, software for large-scale electrical system analysis, decision support systems, and neural networks.
Role in the INDY project
DITEN, through its Lab DITEN-IEES (Intelligent Electric Energy Systems), a subcontractor of Leonardo, specializes in defining operational scenarios, KPIs for electric system efficiency, reliability, and resiliency in military base microgrids powered by traditional and renewable sources. Their expertise includes load and generation forecasting, optimal microgrid energy management, and electric network simulation.
