WELCOME TO MEAN4SG-ITN
MEAN4SG – Metrology Excellence Academic Network for Smart Grids- aims to educate 11 young researchers in the smart grids metrology field by constructing a training network gathering the whole innovation value chain.
The overall MEAN4SG research program tackles the main research challenges in the smart grids metrology field identified by the European R&D community:
(1) power quality analysis, (2) smart grids modelling and management, (3) advanced monitoring through Phasor Measurement Units applications and (4) smart cable diagnosis.
