The ongoing transformation of energy systems towards a decentralized production model requires a new centrality and active involvement of energy consumers (or prosumers) in electricity markets. The consumption behaviors should be adapted to market conditions providing savings to the customers and benefits to the energy system as a whole. Customer empowerment requires the adoption of innovative technologies, such as sensors, controllers, and communication systems on a vast scale and with high levels of reliability.
SMITh project provides a totally innovative solution in this field exploring the opportunities offered by IoT and decentralized multiagent optimization.
