_________________________________________________________________________

Providing electricity to isolated communities remains one of the core challenges.

The solution can only be by way of local micro-grids.

REIDS micro-grid main application focus:

Island systems Emergency situations

Remote village systems

Two-pronged R&D approach: • In laboratory, over-the-horizon research to imagine tomorrow’s energy technologies and systems.

• Large-scale energy production, storage and end-use test & demonstration projects to comfort the

public at large and public authorities that «yes we can» already to-day. REIDS focus. __________________________________________________________________________

The major challenge for broad and

large-scale integration of PV and

wind energy is system integration

and energy storage.

REIDS

Vision - Foster systemic research and development in the broad energy arena in support of Singapore

corporate and public stakeholders, thereby strengthening their position within the rapidly growing renewable energy and micro-grid markets.

- Support Singapore’s commitment to a path towards a broader energy mix, including a growing renewable energy contribution, and a more rational energy end-use.

Objectives - Test and demonstrate, at a large-scale level, the proper integration of a broad range of

renewable energy production - onshore and offshore, energy storage and rational energy end-use technologies to provide for the supply of a wide palette of industrial, commercial and residential loads.

- Provide an emblematic neutral setting research and development platform benefitting private and public sector entities in support of their on-going efforts, as required for prototyping, testing, large scale demonstration and eventually show-casing activities along the complex energy technology and product development cycle.
