Platone - PLATform for Operation of distribution NEtworks

Description

Platone aims at defining new approaches to increase the observability of renewable energy resources and of the less predictable loads while exploiting their flexibility. Platone puts the grid users at the centre, investigates their needs and expectations, and uses the underlying blockchain to unlock the potentials of higher dynamics of response. The Platone project develops an innovative DSO platform to locally maintain system integrity, fostering confidence in flexibility operations. The platform will be tested in three large pilots in Europe and analyzed in cooperation with a large research initiative in Canada.
