Madrid, Spain, twelve May perhaps 2020
Atos, a world chief in electronic transformation, announces its participation in the FLEXIGRID project, which aims to enhance the procedure of the distribution grid – building it more adaptable, reliable and cost-efficient, via the progress of innovative remedies. Its objective is to add to the reduction of CO2 emissions and to the 2030 EU local weather objectives when making ready the grid to the boost in renewable electricity. As component of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 method, FLEXIGRID was initiated mid-2019 and will past for four several years. It brings jointly a consortium of sixteen associates led by the Analysis Centre for Vitality Assets and Consumption (CIRCE) in Spain.
In get to be certain that the project is effective across all EU networks, 8 unique use scenarios at four demo web pages (Spain, Greece, Italy and Croatia) have been selected, addressing the most frequent EU distribution grid complications. Atos will offer and integrate its open source Framework for Utilities and Services (FUSE) for all project pursuits and demonstration web pages, connecting the data generated by true buyers and teams with the innovative expert services made in the project for ideal versatility.

FLEXIGRID will build a established of remedies to handle the troubles that the electric power grid is envisioned to encounter as a consequence of the increasing participation of variable renewable energies in the electricity method.
The new resources will let the distribution network to functionality properly and stably when a big component of variable renewable electric power resources is connected to small and medium voltage networks. Exclusively, via the progress of innovative components and application remedies, the project will function on:
- Boosting the grid hosting capacity of renewables
- Rising the observability, controllability and automation of the network devices for the enhancement of each the safety and resilience of the grid
- Mitigating brief and lengthy-expression congestions in the dispersed grid
- Making certain the interoperability and compatibility of the made remedies with unique platforms made use of by European Dispersed Program Operators (DSOs)
In this context, the electricity system FUSE tends to make accessible the newest technologies (Major Information, AI, IoT, Blockchain and FIWARE) to go just one phase even more to sustainability, when offering a impressive application system that gives network visibility and command, process automation and organization collaboration for remedies across the electricity and utility price chain. Atos will use the system to facilitate the replicability of expert services and remedies, integrating unique components and application remedies to thoroughly exploit the data furnished by community and dispersed electricity resources.
“The decentralization of the electricity marketplace creates a intricate atmosphere with unique actors associated, in which anyone focuses on the same objective, but has their have functions, necessities and features on the way to a sustainable long term.” explains Juan Sancho, Vitality Sector R&D Engineer at Atos in Iberia. “Leveraging Atos’ substantial knowledge in the electricity sector, FUSE integrates the newest remedies and technologies to facilitate efficiency and sustainability, paving the way to the digitalization of the sector and a more sustainable long term”
