Not only due to the arrival of the mainly automated “digital age“, but also due to the integration of renewable and decentral ... ized energy as well as the merging of electric and thermal domains, the energy sector has an increasing need for flexibility. FISMEP targets this need by developing a cloud-based, service-oriented, open source software platform to operate an efficient, automated and sustainable energy supply for single buildings as well as municipalities. The platform concept, which is known as Smart Energy Platform, has already been developed in the previous EU project FINESCE (Future INtErnet Smart Utility Services). FISMEP draws on the results of FINESCE and will further advance the platform by designing and adding new services to increase the flexibility of energy systems. To show and exploit the platform‘s impact on the energy system, three field tests will be carried out on locations in Germany, Sweden and Romania. Here, innovative use cases will be demonstrated with a particular focus on energy efficiency, performance and user-centered adaptation. The overall aim is to reach stakeholders at an international level and to simultaneously trigger a widespread exploitation of the results, particularly by SMEs that will benefit from the open source solutions.
