Situation

We see unprecedented challenges to the electricity grid

We are currently witnessing unprecedented challenges to the electricity grid. The growing electrification of households and industries, coupled with the effects of climate change and natural disasters, as well as the increasing variability in energy production, are placing significant stress on all components of the grid.

 

The transmission grid plays a pivotal role in realizing a future driven by affordable and abundant clean energy. 

 

However, transmission grid owners are now confronted with the need for multi-trillion-dollar investments in the coming decades, all while the complexity of the grid is on the rise. The traditional methods of operating this critical infrastructure are no longer adequate to address these evolving challenges.

Technology

Our technology is as unique as it is brilliant

Promaps provides you with holistic, real-time insights essential for efficiently operating your grid and preparing it for the ongoing energy transition. Our probabilistic risk management solution helps identify and mitigate risks within your system, allowing you to capitalize on future opportunities more swiftly.

Leveraging big data and a digital twin of your power system, in concert with proprietary mathematic modeling, we calculate the anticipated energy that will not be delivered. Our proprietary software employs Markov models to continuously enhance your risk management capabilities and harness technological advancements.

Our goal is to be your trusted partner in managing all aspects of your grid operations.

Software features encompass:

  • Data APIs can connect Promaps technology to operations systems / digital twin platform, and third-party data like weather data
  • Real-time probabilistic risk calculations of your power system
  • Failure probability for each component, branch and system
  • Risk for loss of load in MWh/h for each load and the whole system
  • Web-based operational dashboard for intuitive live reports and overall system status
  • Model scenarios and test risk mitigation actions and strategies on a digital twin of your power system

 

“Get real-time insights into the state of the power supply. Quantify your power system’s current and future risk level. Make calculated decisions on the uncertainty you face in supplying stable energy.”

As an ambitious Distribution System Operator, our commitment to deliver on our customer promise is fundamental to our thinking. As part of this, to be able to understand and mitigate risk is essential to secure delivery of power to our customers in a responsible and predictable way. This is why we use Promaps Realtime from Infinigrid.

Head of Grid Development and Strategy in Tensio-Rune Paulsen



In many grid development projects, increased security of supply is the greatest measure of benefit and also one of the most difficult to quantify. Probabilistic risk calculations strengthen the underpinning and highlight the effects of the measure for a highly meshed power system and corresponding unclear state. This makes it easier for the company to decide for itself and for the authority to approve the power system investigations and license processing. A good basis for the socio-economic assessments in these government processes will facilitate the work both with us and the companies and makes the process smoother.
