RI/RE
Optimizing the smartness of electrical grids.

Project context

This project focuses on the current challenges of the energy sector and more specifically on the smart digitization of power grid management through the joint optimization of electricity generation, distribution and consumption.

The program aims to optimize the computing infrastructure in charge of managing the electricity grids: guaranteeing their performance while minimizing their energy consumption.

A co-simulation framework has been developed within the context of the project to jointly simulate an electrical network and its supervision communication network. This framework allows the study of the impact of communication network latency on demand-side management. It is available here.

The energy consumption models for smart grids networks are available here.
