OPAL-RT Germany GmbH is the German branch of OPAL-RT Technologies, a global leader in real-time simulation systems for power electronics, power systems, automotive applications, and aerospace technologies. Building on OPAL-RT’s long-standing expertise, the German subsidiary supports industry, research institutes, and universities with advanced hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and real-time digital simulation (RTDS) solutions that enable highly accurate modelling, testing, and validation of complex control and protection systems.

OPAL-RT Germany provides specialized engineering, technical support, and training to a rapidly growing community of users engaged in cutting-edge research on grid stability, renewable integration, smart grids, and next-generation power electronics. The company closely collaborates with academic and industrial partners across Europe, contributing to innovation initiatives that push the boundaries of simulation technology and accelerate the development of safe, reliable, and future-ready energy systems.

Within this project, the capabilities of the OPAL-RT simulation platform will be leveraged for the real-time execution of RWTH Aachen’s DPsim solver. OPAL-RT will support partners for implementation of simulated sections, as well as for integration of the simulated system to external devices and black box models (FMUs). Additionally, OPAL-RT will support definition of scenarios.
