About us
The SHIFT to Direct Current (SHIFT2DC) project will propose and implement a top-down application agnostic approach for the design, simulation, test, validation and application of direct current (DC) solutions at both medium (MV) and low voltage (LV) levels. The proposed solutions will be tested in two field-test demonstration sites, in two DC living Labs and in two digital twin demonstrators. The field-tests and demonstrators will allow an evaluation of the advanced control methodologies and tools, the definition of the appropriate implementation conditions, and a consolidation of the most promising solutions and corresponding business models for MV and LV DC systems.
