Interoperability by Design – From Theory to Practice (Workshop 1)

Description

Interoperability is a key prerequisite of the digital transformation of energy systems. Some of the major challenges in the way to achieving a seamless integration with a high interoperability maturity level are not following a well-defined methodology. The first part of the workshop presents a methodology – the AIT (Virtual Verification Laboratory) VLab, which is based on the principle of interoperability by design. The principle advocates that interoperability must be considered from the very beginning of the solution design and should be followed through all the life-cycle phases. It works by defining a common view of the system first so that the functional objectives of the solution can be aligned with what needs to be implemented. This methodology is being used in the Horizon 2020 project SENDER. In the second part of the workshop, participants are invited to try out the methodology and related toolkit by integrating components into a provided environment. This environment consists of a virtual representation of a simple energy system with several actors (e.g., grid operator, energy supplier, customer) and a predefined use case.
