Result description
A suite of web services that provides enhanced energy monitoring and scheduling capabilities for distribution grid operators. The Low voltage distribution decision support toolkit (LVD-DST) provides DSOs with the intelligence to convert their LV grid into a Smart LV grid.
Key Functionalities
- Demand & generation forecasting: uses smart meter data for day-ahead forecasts and prediction of congestion and voltage problems.
- Fault detection & isolation: provides enhanced monitoring of the grid based on multivariate statistics to automatically detect faults and other abnormalities in a statistical sense
- Optimal grid operation scheduling: calculates optimal grid operation schedules of active elements (switchgear/storage) in the grid to prevent critical events, reduce energy exchange at substation level and peak shaving.
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
- Business partners – SMEs, Entrepreneurs, Large Corporations
- I/we wish to transfer my/our IPR to an interested party
- Business plan development
We seek to license the technology to a commercial entity, either to integrate it in the next generation distribution management systems or as an addition that provides intelligence to legacy distribution management systems
- Public or private funding institutions
- Other Actors who can help us fulfil our market potential
- Private Investors
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
Currently the technology is being demonstrated at the pilot site. In future both technical and product valorisation activities have been identified:
- On the development side, the adaptation of current methods and algorithms to integrate and demonstrate (TRL 7) and complete, test and qualify (TRL 8) the prototype into a real environment will require technical manpower not only for the development but also for the technical support that will be provided and the validation at operational (TRL 9) scenario.
- Regarding transference, business models are required to be analyzed and a business plan has to be defined. Also, marketing strategies with their associated dissemination plan and internationalization is required. Some of these tasks may end up subcontracted and hence investment is needed here too.
Currently, we’re partcipating in the L2M (Lab to Market) programme, withing the XRE4S (R+D+I Energy Network for Society)
Yes, solution can be replicated for any DSO.
