Approach
Our research project PLATOON deploys distributed/edge processing and data analytics technologies for optimized real-time energy system management in a simple way for the energy domain expert.
The project develops and uses the PLATOON reference architecture, COSMAG-compliant, for building and deploying scalable and replicable energy management solutions that contribute to increased renewable energy consumption, smart grids management, increased energy efficiency and optimised energy asset management.

Solution
The technologies developed in PLATOON are based on European standards relating to data management, data security and interoperability in terms of data models and communication interfaces.
Together with the definition of the reference architecture, Engineering leads the design and implementation of a data security model and framework to support the different project requirements in terms of security, data access control and data usage. Engineering coordinates and executes, together with the specific local partners (Roma Capitale and Poste Italiane), the pilot on “Advanced Energy Management System and Spatial (multi-scale) Predictive Models in the Smart City”. The project has received co-funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 programme - Contract No. 872592
