SUSTAINABLE Smart Distribution System OperaTion for MAximizing the INtegration of RenewABLE Generation

Coordinator: E-REDES - DISTRIBUICAO DE ELETRICIDADE SA (PT)

The SuSTAINABLE project will develop and demonstrate a new operation paradigm, leveraging information from smart meters and short-term localized predictions to manage distribution systems in a more efficient and cost-effective way, enabling a large-scale deployment of variable distributed resources.The SuSTAINABLE concept is based on the cloud principle, where the distribution system operator i) collects information from smart metering infrastructure and other distributed sensors, and communications from external partners, market operators, and maintenance staff; ii) processes the information…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €3.9M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3.2 years from 2013-01-01 to 2016-03-31.
