Abstract
Due to the increasing complexity of the global energy system and the amount of data transmitted by smart devices, there is an urgent need to unlock smart technologies and sendees with investments on the scalability of computational resources. This objective can be achieved by means of a standardized software platform that can support interoperability and behave as the main vehicle for the rapid implementation of innovative energy sendees. One possibility to enhance computational power on demand is cloud computing, which forms the Internet of Things (IoT). In this work, a customizable open-source IoT platform setup using the FIWARE framework is deployed, which exploits the advantages for a smart energy domain. The term platform comprehends a set of software tools that allow quick integration of various devices. This study presents the implemented platform and analyses its functionality in different use cases on the European level.
Highlights
The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have established a continuously sharpened framework of orientation for governments and organisations to commonly strive for global and local sustainability action
Layer 3 is the open application programming interfaces (API), which has already been developed in FIWARE and o↵ers easy data access to third parties that need to collaborate with the utility running in the platform
As evinced by the results, the proposed architecture contributes to improving the energy system by o↵ering re-usable and open-source services without any national boundaries, besides the achievement of scalability via cloud-based solutions
Summary
The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have established a continuously sharpened framework of orientation for governments and organisations to commonly strive for global and local sustainability action. Modernization of the electricity grids to increase the flexibility of the power system, the e ciency of transfer capacity and active participation of end-user are the implementation road-map in many strategic kinds of research In this context, a standardized and open-source software platform is the key enabler of interoperability and the main vehicle for the rapid implementation of innovative energy services. Layer 3 is the open API, which has already been developed in FIWARE and o↵ers easy data access to third parties that need to collaborate with the utility running in the platform Such architecture is fundamentally new for the energy sector and potentially strong in supporting scalability on-demand. The e↵ort proposed in FISMEP, which is powered by FIWARE, is perfectly aligned with the unlocking strategy
