There is a new microgrid fast charging station designer available in the market, thanks to the innovation of XENDEE Corporation and the Idaho National Laboratory. The company announced this Friday that in conjunction with INL, it launched the new designer within its XENDEE platform.
Firstly, the company launched but also tested and validated the solution, along with two in-depth case studies for grid connected and islanded operation.
Secondly, the development offers a design and validation framework for renewable based Microgrid configurations; those to deliver optimal electric vehicle fast charging, energy security, and value-added grid services; such were the words of Michael Stadler, CTO of XENDEE
Thirdly, the INL, and of course with the U.S. Department of Energy, supported the solution with the Department of Energy’s Microgrid Program. Consequently, the XENDEE platform now offers further optimization of the renewable energy and storage resources within the Microgrid.
Additionally, new features were built for scalability, making these projects a reliable and repeatable foundation for a sustainable nationwide network of electric vehicle charging stations; added Stadler in the company’s statement.

INL tested the microgrid solution with UCSD data
Moreover, the designer utilizes XENDEE’s Microgird software to create project simulations; also, financial optimizations, and operational dispatches that maximize the efficiency of the system; consequently, users can have early returns on investment.
In addition, the platform can also map all cables, transformers, and distributed technology interactions to anticipate and mitigate problems during peak usage or adverse conditions. The INL tested all of these features; in order to ensure project viability and technical feasibility in real world settings.
Furthermore, the results were optimal; as the INL’s simulations, based on real world data coming from the University of California San Diego campus; concluded that all electrical results matched within 5% of the predicted values.
On the other hand, the platform also optimizes dispatch and generation at each time; which enables the Microgrid to take advantage of energy sales to best manage the charging of an electrical fleet; even under changing hourly conditions.
Finally, Adib Naslé, CEO of XENDEE, said. “The Microgrid Fast Charging Station Designer is also perfectly positioned to meet that demand; and also help organizations efficiently launch new fast charging sites.”
