The GREEN project is an artificial intelligence platform that seeks to develop an industrial solution to exploit IoT data by combining technologies such as Federated Learning, Blockchain and Smart Contract. Its main objective is to optimize and accelerate electric vehicle charging service transactions in a decentralized, secure and transparent way. The platform allows to generate a predictive model of the energy demand required in charging stations (RE). In this way, charging station managers (RMS) can negotiate a price adjusted to their needs with the Electricity Grid Provider (ERP), without compromising customer data and maintaining fair competition.
[ISR12205 INARIM I+D DGAM Ministerio de Defensa ] -Maduration of the SEDA Technology Demonstrator (MADS ) (2022 - 2024)
The MADS project seeks to improve the SEDA technology demonstrator to provide research and software development services in the field of Artificial Intelligence systems. New satellite data sources and AI techniques will be incorporated to improve automatic processing and expand the capabilities of the SEDA system. It also focuses on additional technological objectives such as the implementation of a REST API and the definition of interfaces for the use of already trained AI algorithms in other operational contexts. With the integration of Edge Computing technology, it will be possible to carry out data processing and analysis tasks at the place where they are generated, which will optimize decision making and improve real-time information management.
