Scalability, reliability and integrability are key considerations in system design. We strive for modularity, energy efficiency and the ability to process data in real time, either locally or in a cloud infrastructure. Our aim is to create customised, flexible solutions that bring real added value to the customer in terms of energy efficiency and automated operations.
Our research group is dedicated to the research and development of control and monitoring systems that efficiently support energy optimisation, real-time monitoring of operational states and automated interventions in various energy applications. Our projects involve the analysis of energy processes in industrial plants, buildings or other real estate, including the installation of measurement systems and data loggers, the analysis of the collected data, the development of control algorithms based on these data and the development of control systems based on these algorithms.
The focus is on systems capable of real-time data processing, decision support and automated control based on information from different sources. Such systems could be suitable for example for individual cooling and heating solutions, for monitoring inverters in solar or battery energy storage, for supporting electric vehicle charging services, and for general building automation or industrial energy management, with a particular focus on systems integrating renewable energy sources.
