Medium-Voltage Direct Current Filter

The National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) is seeking proposals to add a Medium-Voltage Direct Current (MV-DC) Filter at NLR's Flatirons Campus. This setup will open a wide range of research opportunities, especially in the context of modern power systems and renewable energy integration. Key research areas will include power quality improvement, grid-forming and grid-following control, advanced control algorithms, DC microgrid research, and hardware-in-the-loop simulations. • The filter will be used for research in modern power systems and renewable energy integration. • The proposal should include DC-rated fuses to protect capacitors and meet the specified clearing curve. • The system should be designed to allow for future integration of a DC breaker and means of disconnect. • The use of foreign origin components is acceptable if the delivered end-product complies with applicable Buy American requirements.
