SUMMARY
Adding intelligence to the power grid requires communication and computation infrastructure, with consequent requirements for additional investments. To be cost efficient, it is therefore essential to enable intelligent power grid operation by leveraging existing communication infrastructures. The goal of SmartC2Net is to develop, implement, and validate robust solutions that enable smart grid operation on top of heterogeneous off-the-shelf communication infrastructures with varying properties.

SOLUTIONS
- Developing adaptive network and grid monitoring
- Designing strategies to control communication network configurations and QoS settings
- Producing extended information models and adaptive information management procedures for the Smart Grid
- Validating the effectiveness of this project in representative use-cases of the active operation of Distributed Energy Resources connected to medium and low voltage distribution networks.
- Showing that intelligent distribution grid operation can be realized in a robust manner over existing communication infrastructures even despite the presence of accidental faults and malicious attacks
