Adaptricity

Adaptricity is a cloud-based, modular grid analytics platform that helps distribution system operators better understand, operate and plan their network infrastructure through data-driven analytics. By combining established grid-planning practices with data-driven algorithms, it unlocks the full potential of available network measurements, including smart-meter data. This approach can deliver significant cost savings in grid operation, maintenance, planning and asset management.

 

Platform Modules

• Adaptricity.Sim — time-series simulation and analysis of networks with distributed generation, storage and smart meters, combining network data and measurements from different master-data sources

• Adaptricity.Mon — near-real-time grid monitoring with cyclic import of smart-meter data, power-flow simulation at each time step, and visualization of element loading and voltage bands

• Adaptricity.Plan — data-driven grid planning using future scenarios and scaling stress tests

• Automated preliminary assessment of connection requests, such as EV charging stations or PV systems, based on existing time-series simulations

 

Key Features

• Power-flow and N-1 analyses, support for unbalanced/asymmetric networks and three-phase smart-meter measurements

• Rapid identification of critical grid locations and root-cause analysis using time-series data

• Process-oriented cloud platform managed through a web browser

• Information-security management system meeting ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 requirements

• Improved renewable-energy integration and reduced network losses
