Expected Outcome:Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:
Increase the reliability of the energy system by enhancing flexibility and efficiency of the European electricity grid to make it ready for the needed drastic increase of the renewable energy share and more resilient to future shocks (such as cyber-attacks) through scenario analysis and modelling.Improve management, maintenance and operations of the EU Electricity System.Enhance dynamic monitoring of the energy system, to facilitate energy system integration, information flows, detect anomalies, forecasting demand and to address infrastructure bottlenecks.Improve the data exchange between TSOs and DSOs and between network operators and the market players, leveraging data exchange from prosumers.Creation of new services for companies and public authorities based on the digital twin. Scope:To deal with the rising complexity of the Energy System(s), and the impact of the fast-changing energy market reality on the energy system, a digital twin of the electricity grid is a key digital solution to support network operators and market players in performing a well-informed d...

Scope:To deal with the rising complexity of the Energy System(s), and the impact of the fast-changing energy market reality on the energy system, a digital twin of the electricity grid is a key digital solution to support network operators and market players in performing a well-informed decision-making. It is key tool to accelerate the innovation cycle and to reduce the inertia of the energy sector when it comes to the integration of digital solutions in the energy system in order to make it more efficient, resilient and able to integrate higher shares of renewable energies. Digital transformation of the energy system is thus essential to meet the objectives of REPowerEU.
The project is expected to address all of the following:
Create, develop and test a Digital Twin of the Electricity Grid that covers dynamic monitoring, (smart) grid planning, secure operation, forecasting and scenario analysis.It has to be modular, interoperable and implementable at different scales, integrating both (decentralised) supply and demand-side, taking into account all relevant energy data.Promote new ways for energy companies, to share data and break the data-silos - simplifying the data maintenance and exchange process - through a dynamic monitoring of the whole system.Synchronize data from various systems, including at least 5 TSO, 5 DSO and 5 market parties that are not related in terms of ownership and with varying levels of infrastructure maturity.Standardize it into one multi-user platform via standards-based adapters/interfaces, compliant and integrated with the Common European Energy Data Space.Use the Digital twin for multi-facetted resilience scenario analysis to investigate how the electricity grid responds to stimuli or shocks (e.g. RES integration, cyber-attacks) and what answers can be provided.Test and pilot the applications of science and innovation in the energy sector (e.g. testing the combination of key digital technologies such as High Performance Computing, Big Data, AI, IoT and Cloud Computing) in order to foster the rapid development new services based on them [e.g. Load Balancing, Power Management, Consumer Services, Demand forecasting real time and interactive computing]. These new services should help to enhance the flexibility and resilience of the EU energy system.Involve key organisations to ensure a European approach is required. In particular, ENTSO-E and DSO associations, as well as main stakeholders such as T&D Europe, Eurelectric, SmartEn, etc. To ensure interoperability and integration into the grid and the federated European digital infrastructure, specific demonstrators will make use of operational end-to-end architectures, digital platforms and other data exchange infrastructure for the energy and cross-sector systems being developed under ongoing Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe as well as under other EU programs such as the Digital Europe Program and Connecting Europe Facility.
The selected projects are expected to contribute to the BRIDGE initiative[1], actively participate to its activities and allocate up to 2% of their budgets to that end. Additional contributions to the ‘Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation’ (AIOTI) and other relevant activities (e.g. clusters of digital projects and coordinating actions) might be considered, when relevant.
