AI-based assistance and forecasting systems

In the joint project AProSys - AI-supported assistance and forecasting systems for sustainable use in intelligent distribution grid technology - a consortium from research and industry is investigating the digitalization of the energy transition.

One of the major challenges of the energy and mobility transition is to continue to guarantee the security of energy supply for the economy and society in Germany. It is strategically important to increase the reliability of the distribution grid with the accompanying digitalization of operating resources so that grid operators can flexibly counter potential outages in advance in the long term.

The AProSys project uses artificial intelligence (AI) to transform the pure condition monitoring of individual energy technology systems into a cognitive assistance system as the next logical step in digitalization. The technical robustness and resilience of the supply system requires a future-oriented forecast for grid components. For the concept, which has not yet been researched in the context of grid technology, it is necessary that the cognitive assistance systems can digitally support employees in activities directly on the systems with prioritized recommendations and instructions for action.
