EV Integration Lab

Advancing EV integration and EV technologies offering state of the art technologies and cross-functional lab facilities.

Unlocking the future of sustainable mobility

Welcome to the forefront of innovation at PowerLabDK’s laboratory for grid integration of electric vehicles. Our cutting-edge research is driving the seamless integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into the smart grid, paving the way for a cleaner, more efficient energy future. Join us as we explore groundbreaking solutions that enhance grid stability, optimize energy use, and reduce carbon footprints. The Lab supports a wide array of EV integration and technology services, specializing in two core areas: 

Electric Vehicle Power System Integration

This area focuses on the electric connection between an electric vehicle and the electrical network to which it connects. It includes studies on smart grids, interoperability, and power measurement.

Electric Vehicle Enabling Technology

This area covers the electrical components and technologies essential to the operation, performance, and cost of electric vehicles. It involves research and development, as well as equipment testing.

Supporting a wide array of EV integration and technology services

The EV Integration Lab in Lyngby offers comprehensive services in both Power System Integration (PSI) and Enabling Technology (ET). By leveraging these resources, the EV Lab aims to drive innovation and advancement in electric vehicle technology and integration.

Infrastructure

Support for both serial-produced and open platform electric vehicles and charging infrastructure.

Metering Equipment and Databases

Equipped with logging equipment in vehicles, infrastructure, and backend systems.

Test Equipment

Capability to test in compliance with contemporary EV standards.

Lab Space and Interfaces

Dedicated lab space with interfaces to other PowerLabDK facilities.

Second-hand Tesla Battery
Second-hand Tesla Battery for Grid Connected Energy Storage: The project has the goal to take batteries from damaged Tesla vehicles, implement the needed control software and user interface to connect the batteries to the grid.
GREAT
The overall objective is to develop the tools, methods, and knowledge to quantify the needs for grid services and evaluate the ability of technologies in providing the services. The models considered through the project contain Denmark and Europe.
SBEES
The goal of SBEES is to develop a set of digital services that will be necessary to drive the development of electromobility forward. Two services will be developed for the planning of the expansion of charging infrastructure and power grids.
AHEAD
The AHEAD project will predict the most convenient location to place the electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and optimise both the usage of the power grid resources, and the charging stations located in urban and rural areas.
