The laboratory at the CNR-ITAE Test Centre, is equipped with a test station for hybrid power systems designed for transport having power up to 60 kW. The test bench, which is realised to control the test on fuel cells, batteries and supercapacitors hybrid powertrain from control desk, allows to analyse...
Energy Systems
The laboratory is divided into several departments that are related to each accessory activity, such as development, prototyping, and test of energy systems for the energy production and storage from renewable and non-renewable sources. The departments deals with the following activities: Development and test of materials and components for vanadium...
Integrating renewable energy sources
The laboratory activity aims at developing and evaluating management protocols of energy flows deriving from one or more renewable sources (wind power, PV) together with storage systems (batteries, supercapacitors) and other systems of electric power (fuel cells, conventional generators) that are both off-grid and connected to the electricity network. The...
Supercapacitors
The laboratory is used for carrying out research on materials and components for supercapacitors, and it provides an isolation chamber under inert gas atmosphere (Glove Box) and characterisation systems for electrochemical systems. The available equipment is a support for the research activity that are centred on lead batteries, lithium batteries, and...
