The project explores the advantages of closed-loop testing (PHIL-based) over traditional open-loop testing, focusing on its ability to capture grid interactions. This approach enables a wider range of test cases, providing more realistic and comprehensive testing scenarios. In addition to reviewing the current state of closed-loop testing and identifying areas for improvement, the project will assess the requirements for the overall PHIL system. A key milestone will be identifying a unique test case, which will serve as the first demonstrator for the JRA.
