Modern distribution grids are facing important challenges such that the need to integrate massive amounts of renewables and storage in the low and medium voltage distribution grid, enhance the usage of distribution networks to avoid construction of new lines, connect several loads at different voltage levels supplied with alternating or direct current (AC or DC). In order to address the challenges described, iPLUG proposes the development of novel power electronics solutions based on multiport converters in order to enhance the integration of multiple renewable sources, energy storage systems and loads. The proposed converters, installed in several optimal locations, can facilitate a massive integration of renewable avoiding grid congestion and allowing the provision of functionalities to both the endusers and the distribution grid. The project studies both system-level aspects and detailed power electronics innovative solutions for low and medium-voltage applications. iPLUG is organized in six work packages. The system design is addressed, including concept definition, specification, sizing and location optimization. Multiport power converters and their inner control are designed and validated experimentally in the laboratory. The overall system control is also proposed, considering the usage of multiple multiport converters in several use cases and validation the concepts in the lab. Technical, economic, social and environmental impact analysis is conducted. The project consortium is formed by a core of five research institutions, supported by relevant companies which provide key requirements and case studies and analyse the project results

现代分销网格面临着重要的挑战，即需要在低压和中型电压分配网格中整合大量的可再生能源和存储，从而增强了分配网络的使用以避免构建新线路，将几个载荷连接到交替或直接电流（AC或DC）的不同电压水平上的几个负载。为了应对所描述的挑战，IPLUG提出了基于多端子转换器的新型电力电子解决方案的开发，以增强多个可再生能源，储能系统和负载的整合。所提出的转换器安装在几个最佳位置，可以促进可再生能源的大规模整合，以避免网格充血，并允许向终结者和分布网格提供功能。该项目研究了低压和中型电压应用的系统级方面和详细的电源创新解决方案。 IPLUG在六个工作包中组织。解决系统设计，包括概念定义，规范，尺寸和位置优化。在实验室中设计和验证了多层功率转换器及其内部控制。考虑到多个用例中的多个多派转换器的使用情况，还提出了整体系统控制，并验证了实验室中的概念。进行了技术，经济，社会和环境影响分析。该项目联盟由五个研究机构的核心组成，并由相关公司的支持，这些公司提供关键要求和案例研究并分析项目结果
