Smart Transformation for Resilience And communityservices Through digitAl grid layers

STRATA will develop a new digital-based service concept to be introduced on MV/LV distribution transformer level. The key idea is to replace traditional distribution transformer with a Smart Digital Node that is able to act as a service center for local energy communities and at the same time provide new services and resilience towards distribution grid and flexibility markets. The concept is powered by latest power electronics and digital platform for coordination and communication. The customer-level involment is achieved through local communication and user interfaces building upon it. Intelligence and analysis is embedded within the Smart Digital Node in order to enable new services. The system is designed for hybrid grid technologies, thus utilizing also DC grids for interconnecting new solutions such as PV panels, batteries, EV charging or smart homes.
