Smartened Grids Serving Energy Communities for Optimal Multi Dispatch Energy Systems
This keynote presents the essential evolution of smart grids. The transformation of our electricity networks, enabled by digital technologies, is increasingly necessary. This transformation involves the use of sensors and software to better match the supply and demand of electricity in real-time, minimizing costs and maintaining the stability and reliability of the grid.
This keynote will examine automated systems and self-healing logic that are integral to the daily operations of these networks. These characteristics are essential for functionality and provide the operational versatility needed to achieve optimal use of emerging distributed resources.
