Aspern - a digital twin for resilient infrastructure coupling e-mobility and grid
Aspern - a digital twin for resilient infrastructure coupling e-mobility and grid
Public Sector, Research & Education
Aspern Smart City Research (ASCR)
Model the energy demand of
electrical vehicles and their impact on the electricity grid
Utilize the electricity network to
maximize the supplied energy
Communication and information of extra network capacity reserves for
electric car users
Improve system efficiency and operation by connecting charging points
to buildings and their parking lots
Implementing
applications for network capacity prediction & providing the information
for the end user
Data
Sources: Ontology
Electrical network data based on the IEC standard CIM (Common Information
Model)
Electrical
load information: Publicly accessible and open data
platforms provide charging station information
Digital
Twin: Correlation of transportation and electricity network data, charging stations and electric vehicle consumption by creating a graph-based data model (CityGraph)
Visualization
of correlated data: Transportation
information and traffic flows for end users in an interactive map
Status of charging: Prediction of
charging point usage (occupancy and energy demand)
"With the City Graph our partners Siemens Advanta Solutions and Microsoft supported us to integrate multiple data sources in an efficient way and we were able to jointly build digital twins of our city district in a very short time frame"
Roman Tobler, Manager at ASCR and Wiener Netze
Improved
system efficiency & operation by coordinated interaction with the
electricity grid
Enabling
e-mobility through better planning of network
capacities and related expansion
Providing services through open
standards and interfaces, with the goal of affordability, monetization
enablement and longevity
Digital
Twin can be extended with any ontology (e.g. heat networks, transportation,
buildings) and related for many other business use cases
Increasing customer satisfaction and attractiveness of e-mobility
through fast availability and transparency of charging capacities, leading to
a reduction of emissions from combustion vehicles
The system implemented for providing & monitoring network capacity can
help to secure the reliability of power supply in large cities
