This project is a continuation of the work of the EU’s H2020 NETfficient project, which saw Ayesa develop Gridpilot, a smart platform unlike any other for managing distributed energy assets.
Gridpilot manages renewable energy generation and storage across various producers and assets, automatically deciding with perfect timing when electricity should be consumed or sold. What’s more, by using artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT), it does this in a controlled and secure manner, something that is necessary to operate in the market.
In terms of the technology ecosystem, artificial intelligence plays a critical role in the scaling tools for renewable infrastructure and energy storage used in our application, as well as the automatic operating of all these assets in a coordinated manner. Ayesa’s system combines machine learning algorithms with mathematical modelling and new optimisation algorithms, such as stochastic and distributed technologies, to forecast energy generation, prices and consumption.
Likewise, the acquisition, storage and use of high-quality data and rapid responses are extremely important to the efficient working of the system.
Furthermore, the technology offered by Gridpilot will maximise the scalability and integration of artificial intelligence technologies.
As part of the project, we are also working on a real-time interface to provide end users with better insights.
