Smart Aggregation and DER Dispatchability for Romania’s Energy Market

Aggregation and DER Dispatchability – The Future of Smart Energy in Romania

The modern energy landscape is shifting from centralized generation to distributed flexibility. INOWATTIO leads this transformation through aggregation and DER dispatchability, connecting thousands of decentralized assets into one intelligent system that supports Romania’s energy transition.

How Aggregation Works

Aggregation combines multiple small-scale energy resources — such as solar panels, batteries, EV chargers, and industrial consumers — into a single virtual unit.
INOWATTIO’s architecture uses a hybrid cloud–IoT control layer, where local devices (Nemesis) communicate with central SCADA (ARES) and real-time data services (Hemera).

This allows distributed resources to act as a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) — capable of responding instantly to grid needs, adjusting load or generation with sub-second precision.

Real-Time Dispatchability

INOWATTIO’s dispatchability platform ensures that each distributed energy resource can be activated, controlled, and monitored in real time.
Using protocols such as IEC 60870-5-104 and MQTT, commands from Transelectrica or balancing markets are securely transmitted and executed by field devices.

Each DER’s performance is tracked through Hemera, while fallback logic in Nemesis guarantees continuity even during communication loss.

Why It Matters

Real-time DER dispatchability brings measurable value to the grid:

• Enhances grid stability and resilience
• Provides balancing energy on demand
• Reduces network congestion and losses
• Enables prosumers to monetize flexibility
• Accelerates renewable integration in Romania

INOWATTIO and Transelectrica – A New Model for Flexibility

INOWATTIO’s validated architecture with Transelectrica aligns with EU balancing market requirements, enabling aggregated DER portfolios to participate transparently and securely.
This collaboration sets the foundation for smart, decentralized energy operations across Romania’s future energy landscape.

Conclusion

Through aggregation and dispatchability, INOWATTIO turns distributed resources into reliable, dispatchable power assets — creating a more flexible, secure, and sustainable energy system for Romania.
