This facility is the highest electrolysis power installed at the European level. It consists of an electrolyser of 300 kW, a piston compressor, a 1,725 Nm3 H2 storage system and an engine of 55 kW. This pilot plant is being operated by Gas Natural Fenosa in order to extrapolate its behaviour to that of an industrial facility capable of managing all the production of Sotavento wind farm following different strategies: balancing, peak-shaving and increasing the capacity factor of the wind farm.

The goals of SmartCity Málaga can be summarized into the following ones:- Test and deployment of the new energy management model;- Implementation and integration of Distributed Energy Resources. Energy Storage facilities. Electric Vehicles charging processes and intelligent Public Lighting devices into the new operation grid systems

The main objectives of SEESGEN-ICT consist in producing a harmonized set of priorities to accelerate the introduction of ICT into the Smart Distributed Power Generation Grids, investigating requirements, barriers and proposing solutions. SEESGEN-ICT will produce policy recommendations, identify best practices and draw scenarios and roadmaps for the next generation of electric distribution network.

The project will develop: New forecasting methods for wind generation focusing on uncertainty and challenging situations/extremes. - Models for 'alarming': providing information for the level of predictability in the (very) short-term. - Models for 'warning': providing information for the level of predictability in the medium-term (next day(s)).

Joint Demonstration Project to be performed by Iberdrola and Gas Natural Fenosa, consisting in the deployment of a global intelligent electrical network solution for their power distribution systems in a shared geographic area, the Henares region, in order to get the experience and knowledge in deploying and managing intelligent transmission and distribution power systems.

PEGASE is a four year project dealing with the High and Extra High Voltage transmission and sub-transmission networks in Europe (designated as ETN) and implemented by a Consortium composed of 20 Partners including TSOs. expert companies and leading research centre’s in power system analysis and applied mathematics. Its overall objectives are to define the most appropriate state estimation, optimization and simulation frameworks. Their performance and dataflow requirements to achieve an integrated security analysis and control of the ETN.

The project aims at developing a numerical test platform to analyse and to validate new market designs which may allow integrating massive flexible generation dispersed in several regional power markets

OpenNode project is focused on the electrical distribution grid operation and explores answers on the three challenges introduced: • How to improve the distribution grid monitoring to cope with volatile states in the grid • How to integrate the “smart” substation automation devices to increase the efficiency of the distribution grid • How to interoperate with the different roles e.g. operation of the smart meters. power and grid operation

The main objective of the OPEN meter project is to specify a comprehensive set of open and public standards for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) supporting multi commodities (Electricity, Gas, Water and Heat), based on the agreement of the most relevant stakeholders in the area.

Our MISSION in NOBEL was to develop, integrate and validate ICT enabling a reduction of the currently spent energy, by providing a more efficient distributed monitoring and control system for local network operators and prosumers.The key to NOBEL’s efficiency improvement is that prosumers become sources of both energy and information. The information allows the energy system to better adapt the amount of electricity in the network to the real time demand.
