Smart grid power quality and stability measurements in Europe

Significant scientific progress has been achieved in the first 18 months of an EU funded project on metrology in support of smart electrical grids. In this project, fourteen European NMIs and two universities are partnering in research themes including: i) wide-area power quality (PQ) propagation ii) Phasor measurement Units (PMU) for distribution networks iii) network impedance measurements and iv) transducer metrology in support of PMU/PQ.
