- New system
- Description
A novel system, based on web graphical interface, has been developed. This system provides energy management tools for members of energy communities. It enables the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and allows participation in demand response programs. The solution also incorporates a platform for the community operator to monitor the community’s energy utilization, production, adaptability and also to analyze and organize demand response events.
