The Sendai Microgrid Operational Experience in the Aftermath

This case study describes the Sendai Microgrid, on the located campus of Tohoku Fukushi University in Sendai City in Tohoku the district in Japan, and focusses on its operation in the aftermath of the

Microgrids: Experiences, barriers and success factors

However, exceptions to size do exist, as seen in the Sendai case, which has a generation capacity of 800 kW, yet has transitioned from a demonstration to commercial microgrid by proving it can effectively transition to island mode during the Tohoku Earthquake by utilizing the Multi-Power Quality Microgrid System [19].

Sendai Microgrid

Perhaps the most well-known microgrid demonstration on this planet, The Sendai Microgrid Project was one of the four major New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) ones carried out in Japan between 2005 and 2008.

Behavior of the Sendai Microgrid during and after the 311 Great

Abstract: The Multiple Power Quality Supply System as the Sendai microgrid is designed as an ideal power supply system that can simultaneously provide services with multiple power quality levels. The microgrid was developed by NTT Facilities and was installed on the campus of Tohoku Fukushi University in Sendai City, Japan.

Sendai Microgrid

The Sendei Microgrid has different categories of loads based on based on the quality of power they require. This allows much higher reliability to critical needs. It can supply various classes of power quality within the microgrid, seen below.

Case Studies of Smart Community Demonstration Project

Despite the extreme devastation, the Sendai Microgrid resumed supplying power and heat to customers after a short interruption, proving its effectiveness. This case study is an analysis of the operations of the Sendai Microgrid in the aftermath of the earthquake and will provide useful lessons for all microgrid operators and users around the world.

What is Sendai microgrid?

Configuration of Sendai Microgrid The Sendai Microgrid is the system constructed by NTT-F for the “Experimental Study of Multi Power Quality Supply System (MPQSS)”, implemented by NEDO between 2004 and 2008. The configuration of the microgrid system has changed several times since the NEDO demonstration project.

How effective was the Sendai microgrid after the earthquake?

What happened to Sendai microgrid in Tohoku?

As described above, the earthquake caused massive damage to the Tohoku district where the Sendai Microgrid is located. When the earthquake occurred, Tohoku EPC stopped supplying power to the area surrounding the Sendai Microgrid, resulting in a three-day outage.

Why did the Sendai microgrid switch to island mode?

Beginning several tens of seconds after the occurrence of the earthquake at 14:46 on March 11, there were a series of major voltage fluctuations in Tohoku EPC’s commercial grid, then a gradual drop in voltage, leading to the outage. Accordingly, the Sendai Microgrid switched over to island mode.

How to implement Sendai microgrids during a disaster?

Operator training also proved integral to the Sendai microgrid success during the disaster . Therefore, operating procedures and training so that operators have a comprehensive knowledge of the system and guide for unanticipated conditions, are important elements in the implementation of microgrids.

Why did Tohoku EPC stop supplying power to the Sendai microgrid?

When the earthquake occurred, Tohoku EPC stopped supplying power to the area surrounding the Sendai Microgrid, resulting in a three-day outage. Nevertheless, the Sendai Microgrid was able to supply power to loads within its service area continuously.
