Summary

A French SME is offering its knowledge and expertise of smart analysis and monitoring of energy consumption and production.
They developed a software to model, simulate and optimize command-control and energy management systems. The goal is to accompany local energy communities in their development and sensitize consumers. They are looking for research cooperation partners to test the software and develop new local energy communities (H2020, Eurostars or INTERREG could be relevant)

Description

A small French company founded in 2015 is developing a software to improve energy management systems in local communities, with a specific approach consisting of a global awareness of the entire energy system.



They also offer financial and technical optimization of local networks and energy communities based on simulations and prediction models established thanks to the software data. The ultimate purpose of the company is to maximize the energy recovered by local stakeholders, and more generally, by all the users of an energy system.



The software allows any stakeholder to :

- size and optimize the energy system according to  predefined and customized targets.

- predict supervise and monitor consumption, transmission and production through data collection and data analysis

- pilot in advance or/and in real-time energy production, consumption, networks and storage.



The company already participated in H2020 funded projects and in several proposals. 

They benefit from a strong ecosystem and are supported by more than 10 local partners, research centers, public services, companies: among them a SME Instrument Phase 2 winner, municipalities and development agencies.



They are looking for research & cooperation agreements with local communities wanting to explore new opportunities to manage their energy systems and test the SME software.

Advantages and Innovations

The French SME is a software developer and can adapt to the market and clients demands. Their main strength are:

- Software development : part of artificial intelligence algorithms used for designing adapted smart energy management systems and tools.

- Expertise on integration of renewable sources of energy in smart grids

Stage Of Development

Field tested/evaluated

Requested partner

Partners sought should operate as:

- Transmission operator

- Distribution operator

- Local small-scale experiment stakeholder (cities/municipalities/industries)

- IT and scientific simulation

- Sociology/Political scientist for energy governance evolution



Their role would be to test the software, either as co-developer to test and improve the solution, or as end-users to adapt and customize the software according to the local needs of the partner regarding its energy system
