Atos paves the way for flexible and sustainable energy flow in Europe

Madrid, Spain, 12 May possibly 2020

Atos, a world-wide chief in electronic transformation, announces its participation in the FLEXIGRID challenge, which aims to boost the operation of the distribution grid – making it more adaptable, reputable and charge-efficient, by the improvement of innovative remedies. Its goal is to add to the reduction of CO2 emissions and to the 2030 EU local climate objectives when getting ready the grid to the improve in renewable energy. As aspect of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program, FLEXIGRID was initiated mid-2019 and will last for four yrs. It provides jointly a consortium of 16 associates led by the Study Centre for Electrical power Resources and Use (CIRCE) in Spain.

In buy to assure that the challenge is efficient across all EU networks, 8 different use scenarios at four demo web sites (Spain, Greece, Italy and Croatia) have been selected, addressing the most popular EU distribution grid issues. Atos will provide and combine its open supply Framework for Utilities and Solutions (FUSE) for all challenge things to do and demonstration web sites, connecting the knowledge created by serious consumers and groups with the innovative providers made in the challenge for optimum adaptability.

Enabling adaptability for long term distribution grid

The energy industry is currently transitioning from a centralized method with passive consumers into a adaptable network of energetic consumers that includes energy communities. FLEXIGRID will create a set of remedies to deal with the worries that the energy grid is expected to confront as a final result of the expanding participation of variable renewable energies in the energy method.

The new tools will enable the distribution network to functionality safely and stably when a substantial aspect of variable renewable energy resources is related to lower and medium voltage networks. Precisely, by the improvement of innovative components and software package remedies, the challenge will work on:

• Improving the grid hosting capacity of renewables
• Increasing the observability, controllability and automation of the network devices for the advancement of both equally the security and resilience of the grid
• Mitigating quick and long-term congestions in the distributed grid
• Ensuring the interoperability and compatibility of the made remedies with different platforms made use of by European Dispersed Process Operators (DSOs)

In this context, the energy system FUSE helps make accessible the most recent systems (Massive Knowledge, AI, IoT, Blockchain and FIWARE) to go one action further to sustainability, when offering a impressive software package system that offers network visibility and command, method automation and business enterprise collaboration for remedies across the energy and utility worth chain. Atos will use the system to aid the replicability of providers and remedies, integrating different components and software package remedies to completely exploit the knowledge provided by community and distributed energy means.

“The decentralization of the energy industry makes a intricate natural environment with different actors concerned, wherever everybody focuses on the exact goal, but has their individual functions, requirements and attributes on the way to a sustainable long term.” points out [title, functionality] at Atos.  “Leveraging Atos’ in depth encounter in the energy sector, FUSE integrates the most recent remedies and systems to aid performance and sustainability, paving the way to the digitalization of the sector and a more sustainable long term”
