Monitor LV/MV distribution grid

in real time Anytime, Anywhere

• 1. real-time visualization of network status (10min)
• 2. Fault management : asynchronous alarms setting
• 3. Data extraction for other systems

Make the safe decision

Using the real picture of the grid

• 1. identify the physical connectivity
• 2. understand the grid status and operations
• 3. Control in a decentralized way (avoid Big Data and SPOF issues)
• 4. Maintain grid parameters within standards while connecting DERs

Control & Flexibility – Grid Discovery
