Strathclyde is generally very active in smart grid research. We have one of the largest power systems researchgroups in Europe, with over 200 staff and PhD students. Our Power Networks Demonstration Centre (PNDC) isan industrially supported smart grid test facility, which allows practical implementation and testing of researchat 11 kV and 400 V. We co-host a Centre for Doctoral Training in “Future Power Networks and Smart Grids” which will support 55 new PhD students over the next 5 years.
