The EUR30.2m Millener smart grid project will integrate management of a thousand diverse distributed energy resources at the edge of the distribution grid.
Various combinations of distributed energy resources will be deployed at participating consumer premises including solar generation, battery storage and energy load controllers.
All the distributed energy resources will be managed by EDF with the help of BPLG’s Power SG platform as a centralized control system deployed in each region to optimize operational, financial and environmental performance of the electrical network.
EDF Insular Power Systems Division smart grids program director Jean-Michel Deveza said deployment and integrated management of solar generation, battery storage and customer load are a vital part of the company’s smart grid strategy.
"This project is designed to better integrate distributed renewable energy, improve the stability of power systems and identify sustainable economic models," Deveza said.
BPLG’s Power SG enterprise class software platform and Power SG iDER solution will integrate management of grid and customer energy assets including customer load, energy storage and renewables.
