Who we are
We're a group of people working on open source software in the energy space, grid operations and energy related hardware: batteries, bi-directional dis-charging hardware for EVs built with open hardware and running open source software, related DC/AC inverter and the associated cabling, and more. :-)
Always happy to meet new people!
What we're planning on doing
Other than hacking together some fun projects, we're planning on doing some workshops on energy related topics such as energy management, micro-grid operations, bi-directional charging and...some things in that direction. Come visit and ask us things!
Also, this page is still very much a work in progress (what isn't) and will be updated further on...
Power conversions and microgrid
Building a microgrid separate from the main grid would be cool. We plan in getting an EV on site, but for real microgrid action we'd need a grid forming inverter, which we don't have yet #helpwanted
Askarel 2025-07-14: Sorry to intrude, but it just happens that your village sits next to the village:Batavus On Tour. It just happen that off-grid power is one of my interest. The bus runs on 24VDC, but i would like to know, if you intend to run a microgrid, what would be the microgrid voltage, so that i can order hardware before the camp.
Gapspark 2025-07-24: Cool! We have expertise, but currently lack inverter equipment. If you know something?
