Voltage Control is Evolving, Are You Ready for the New Era of Decentralised Grids?

The rapid integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) is fundamentally changing the structure and behaviour of distribution networks. What used to be a passive, predictable system has become a dynamic, decentralised, and data-driven grid, where maintaining voltage stability is one of the most pressing operational challenges.

In this live session, Dr. Dimitrios Lagos (SMPnet) demonstrates how Optisys:

⚡ Functions as a Wide Area Voltage Optimisation module, integrating seamlessly within existing SCADA and local controllers.

⚡ Delivers real-time, coordinated voltage control that minimises energy losses and prevents costly over- or under-voltage events.

⚡ Enhances grid stability and renewable integration through adaptive, AI-driven control.

⚡ Supports TSO–DSO collaboration, helping operators meet service targets and avoid penalties related to voltage compliance.

We also cover how Barbara Edge AI Platform makes it possible to deploy, manage, and scale Optisys at the edge, ensuring ultra-low latency, resilience, and centralised oversight across distributed assets.
