Leading the energy revolution
Smart Distribution Network Management System
The use of monitoring and diagnosis tools is crucial for the distribution networks of the future, the Smart Grids. This is where Ingrid comes into play.
Applications:
Trust in us
Implementation benefits
Self-controlled and microservices architecture:
Cloud and edge implementation.
Sensor – agnostic:
It does not require proprietary hardware and is independent of equipment communication protocol.
Immediate Commissioning:
Only requires communication with storage systems of measurements from Secondary Substation sensors and meters.
Fast convergence:
5 minutes on average in linking a Secondary Subestation.

Dynamic operation of HV-MV overhead lines
Distribution networks face the challenges of the energy transition in the upcoming years and must be prepared for an increase in electricity consumption as well as a new distribution of electricity. Electric power lines need to be digitalised and this digitization has to optimise the operation of the assets. This Dynamic Operation Tool is able to optimise the use of power lines.
System for dynamic optimisation of the operating limits of HV-MV lines
- Use of forecasted weather data.
- No need for own sensors or weather stations.
- Applies safety coefficients that guarantee the safety of the system.
- Web interface for viewing, processing and downloading data.
Use cases
DLR forecast 48 hours ahead
Discharge planning
Maximize renewables integration

InDNC
Controller for the Distribution Network
With the imminent addition of new agents (consumers and generators) to the distribution grids, new controls are needed to make the grid flexible and intelligent to optimise the operation of these assets.
Control system that acts on the flexibility services providers and the control units available to the distribution company (OLTC, capacitor banks, reactors, etc.) in real time on MV or LV networks
- Active and reactive power, frequency and voltage control.
- Web interface for viewing, processing and downloading results.
