Les réseaux et les microréseaux électriques sont rarement accessibles pour effectuer des tests. Le recours à des simulateurs à temps réel est une solution efficace pour permettre l’étude de ces réseaux électriques. Le réalisme de ces simulateurs à temps réel est étroitement lié à la précision des modèles utilisés ainsi que leurs lois de commande. […]

Alternative fuels and energy resources play a key role in both the short and long term sustainable development of transportation. Ammonia (NH3) is the only carbon-free chemical energy carrier (other than hydrogen) suitable for use as a transportation fuel. NH3 can be produced using either fossil fuels, or any renewable energy source, using heat and/or […]

FPInnovations has developed FPInterface, a software platform in which forest operations are simulated in order to estimate fibre supply costs, including harvesting and transportation. It currently has 7 sub-modules including MaxTour and FPAlloc. The goal of this project is to develop and validate optimization techniques in order to implement new sub-modules to FPInterface that will […]

Les turbines hydroélectriques sont poussées à la limite de leurs spécifications ce qui augmente considérablement les risques de défaillance de leurs composantes. Estimer le niveau de dommage, l’usure et l’espérance de vie résiduelle des turbines devient donc un aspect essentiel à obtenir. C’est pourquoi des entreprises comme Andritz Hydro Canada Inc. et Hydro-Québec compilent depuis […]

This research is aimed at the development of new modeling and simulation algorithms of interconnected AC and DC supergrids for power flow and transient stability analyses. The efforts will be focused on the following technical areas: • Advanced modeling methods of AC/DC power converters and controls for the integration of renewable energy resources in power […]

Hydrogen will play a key role in Canada’s transition toward low-carbon energy due to the possibility of carbon-neutral production, its clean combustion, and high energy content per unit mass. As hydrogen is typically stored at high pressure (700 bar or more), rapid compression during refueling can generate substantial heat, which can cause pressure overshoot, underfilling, […]

The global energy system remains heavily reliant on fossil fuels, which continue to supply about 80% of global demand. While renewable energy is growing, combustion-based systems—such as gas turbines and engines—are expected to dominate for decades. This dependency contributes significantly to harmful emissions like CO and NO?. As a clean fuel with no carbon emissions […]

This project focuses on improving short-term electricity demand forecasting, which is essential for ensuring the reliable and cost-effective operation of the power grid. Many Canadian utilities are now using demand-side management strategies such as peak shaving, reducing electricity consumption during peak hours, to lower costs and reduce strain on the grid. However, these strategies can […]

Dans le cadre de ce projet, le stagiaire mènera des entrevues avec des entreprises agroalimentaires et d’autres organisations qui produisent de grandes quantités de déchets organiques. L’objectif est de mieux comprendre leurs besoins, leurs défis et leur intérêt pour une solution locale qui transformerait ces déchets en biogaz renouvelable, pouvant remplacer une partie du gaz […]

This project will help the partner organization develop a business plan and commercialization strategy for a new technology that uses light to turn methane into clean hydrogen and valuable carbon nanomaterials without releasing carbon dioxide. By building a clear profile of potential customers, mapping out how a production plant would operate, designing a business model, […]
