Energy and Community Resiliency Studies in the Dominican Republic. Case Study: Santiago de los Caballeros City
By Ramón Emilio De Jesús-Grullón (PI). MG Research PI, PUCMM What do we talk about when we talk about Energy and Community Resiliency? In recent years, preparing for the impacts of climate change and extreme weather events has become synonymous with the term resilience. Resilience, in this context, is defined as “the ability of people, … Continue reading Energy and Community Resiliency Studies in the Dominican Republic. Case Study: Santiago de los Caballeros City
IoT and Demand Response for Enhancing Grid Stability
By Juan José Pichardo. MG Research Assistant, PUCMM Changing the way we use energy One of the main challenges of the energy sector is not only to generate all the energy that is required by the consumers but also to supply the demanded power at any given time. Ideally, the amount of energy that we … Continue reading IoT and Demand Response for Enhancing Grid Stability

Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation and its Impact on the Design of Power Systems
By Rafael Omar Batista Jorge, Microgrid Researcher, PUCMM Hardware in the Loop (HIL) Simulations A critical part of the engineering process is the design phase to ensure a safe and reliable operation. Computer-based simulations have become a standard for the evaluation of complex designs in which the construction of a prototype is not feasible. Such … Continue reading Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation and its Impact on the Design of Power Systems
Towards the Future: The 21st Century Electric Grid
By Ramón Emilio De Jesús-Grullón, Microgrid Researcher, PUCMM A (very) short history of The Energy Grid A long, long time ago, before the copper wires and the alternating electron — well, the middle of the 1800s to be exact — electricity was an interesting but mostly a useless thing. That would suddenly change when at … Continue reading Towards the Future: The 21st Century Electric Grid
