The Visitor Journey: A Storyline of Solutions

"The visit should be memorable. Focus less on showing equipment and more on creating a storyline of research problem and solutions."

👋
Stage 1

Welcome to the Center

Orientation at the laboratory entrance. Introduction to the center's establishment at IIT Hyderabad, our mission, funding by LS Electricals, and engineering setup by VI Micro.

Stage 2

Why Smart Grids? The National Challenge

Framing India's energy transition: integrating intermittent renewables (solar/wind), preventing catastrophic blackouts, minimizing transmission losses, and managing volatile peak demands.

🔬
Stage 3

The Research Problems We Tackle

How can university campuses optimize multi-megawatt energy consumption? How can power electronics ensure zero-downtime UPS reliability? How will millions of EVs charge without breaking the distribution grid?

⚙️
Stage 4

Our Technologies & Methodologies

Exploring our five core research domains: CEMS, UPS Topologies, EV Infrastructure, Smart Grid Automation, and Autonomous Microgrids.

🎬
Stage 5

Live Hardware Demonstration

Interactive demonstration tailored to visitor duration (5-min quick overview, 15-min standard demo, or 30-min comprehensive academic deep-dive). Live power flow switching and SCADA telemetry.

📊
Stage 6

Research Results & Validations

Demonstrating empirical proof-of-concept: peer-reviewed research publications, intellectual property development, and experimental laboratory validations.

🏭
Stage 7

Real-World Deployment & Industry Impact

Translating prototypes into commercial viability through our spin-off startup — Power Sense Pvt Ltd — and industrial technology licensing partnerships.
