The Smart Grid Simulation Centre is intended to combine electrical power components and communication/control equipment with system simulation tools. In this way the Centre can test grid elements and evaluate different operation scenarios under various conditions. As a specific activity the cooperation in accessing multiterminal grids is described in this paper. }, title = {A Smart Grid Simulation Centre at the Institute for Energy and Transport - Integration of large amounts of offshore wind energy }, url = {http://www.ewi.tudelft.nl/fileadmin/Faculteit/EWI/Over_de_faculteit/Afdelingen/Electrical_Sustainable_Energy/EEC/EPP/Staff/files/RTP_-_COMPENG_2012.pdf}, volume = {}, number = {}, journal = {}, pages = {1-6}, issn = {}, publisher = {IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)}, doi = {} }
