Digital electrification infrastructure

Description of the granted funding

The digital electrification infrastructure consists of three essential elements: systems, digitalization solutions and data. Systems consists of electrification areas and the control and management systems of those. The most essential areas are the mobile working machines and the energy communities (microgrids) consisting of several power electronic converters. Each system has internal structures, but they create a system of systems via digitalization systems, electricity grid and markets. Digitalization solution part of the infrastructure includes sensors and measurement devices, communication and information exchange systems that are needed to control, monitor and optimize the systems' operations, realize services and capabilities via digitalization and securing the performance of electricity and electrified systems as a whole. Data element is creating a platform for the infrastructure to store and share data, ensuring continuity of data access and methods to express metadata.
