Management System for Microgrid Tied kV Class Supercapacitor Units

CIEES Intern: Andrew Castiblanco

Andrew is an Electrical Engineering major who is working on designing and assembling a high-power energy storage for a test microgrid. Andrew works works with the leading manufacturer of the state-of-the-art high voltage supercapacitor storage, Ioxus Inc. (Oneonta, NY) and the energy storage integrator, Unique Technical Services LLC (Holbrook, NY), to evaluate the feasibility of achieving the NAVY target of 1 MW/m3 power density in the Energy Storage Cabinet geometry using Iouxus iMOD-series product. To this end, Andrew designed and built an automated high-voltage test setup.
