The European Electricity Networks of the Future initiative and the Smart Grid vision of the US Department of Energy call for “the construction of a 21st century electric system that connects everyone to abundant, affordable, clean, efficient, and reliable electric power anytime, anywhere,” through a smart grid. Among the goals of the smart grid vision is to give the ability to providers, researchers, policymakers, and consumers to work together to define the functions needed in a smart grid. These stakeholders have identified several important characteristics or performance features for the future smart grid, including:
- self-healing from power disturbance events,
- active participation by consumers in demand response,
- operating resiliently against physical and cyber attacks,
- enabling new products, services, and markets, and optimizing assets and operating efficiently.
- These advancements will be achieved by modernizing the electric grid with information-age technologies, such as microprocessors, communications, advanced computing, and information technologies.
NaSaBau Leonardo Da Vinci (10/2013-10/2015)
Development of a database of the construction materials and techniques for Energy savings and sustainability of the buildings, using sensors and measures, in order to minimize consumption of energy and water, but also humidity and wind problems.
SHELL (2014)
Development of the mathematical formulas and required measuring system for the improvement of the installation, as well as, better network monitoring for minimizing safety and health problems and for better maintenance procedures.
Hellenic Strategic Plan for 2000-2009 (2008-2009)
Integration of the measuring system for high voltage networks, for network monitoring in time intervals less than seconds and modeling using expert systems for system stability. The data warehouse for the technical department, supports also the decision making process of the organization, in an integrated with all business input environment.
Hellenic Strategic Plan for 2000-2009 (2005-2009)
Hellenic Transmission System Operator needed to have an integrated operational management system for the technical operations (network operator), the market operations (market demand and relative decisions making), as well as administrative operations using an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. Our participation required to undertake the role of the analysis and consulting for systems specifications, selection and implementation monitoring/management for the integrated system.
