Hi Jasper,
Thanks for getting in touch with us! To answer your questions:
I hope this helps a bit. If you are interested, you can contact me through wilco.wijbrandi@tno.nl and we could discuss this in a bit more detail.
Best regards, Wilco
I am currently researching on a self-regulating grid based on smart contracts (blockchain technology). I have read through the PowerMatcher documentation and the system seems to be really promising and well documented.
I was wondering about two points though: 1) On your website you state: "By means of the PowerMatcher a microgrid can be created that maintains its own balance." I couldn't find anything about this in the documentation. Have you already implemented a grid that has been balanced by the PowerMatcher instead of an external party (e.g. a TSO)? 2) The PowerMatcher seems to be a perfect system for continous and real-time power balancing. Do you plan on or have you implemented any solutions for the prognosis of power generation/consumption (e.g. include weather prognosis)? Or will this solely be done locally on the level of the device agents?
Looking forward to hear from you!
