EPICS platform: flexible and scalable implementation of automatic systems

All projects carried out at Elewit have an ultimate goal: to improve people's daily lives; our future. And we do this through innovation. We currently face various challenges that must be solved through technology. One such challenge addresses the possibilities of integrating new algorithms and functions in automatic substation systems.

The Red Eléctrica Group develops 4 innovation pilot projects to analyse the potential of 5G in the management of electricity grid infrastructure
  • Led by REE, Elewit and Hispasat, the four use cases test the capacity of 5G to optimise the management and remote visual inspection of high-voltage electricity facilities such as substations and electricity lines.
  • All the projects are in the incubation phase and are part of a 5G macro-project promoted through a joint venture between 8 leading companies in technological innovation and telecommunications.

The Red Eléctrica Group -through its subsidiary companies Red Eléctrica de España, Elewit and Hispasat- is conducting four pilot projects that analyse the pot

SAGA: The power of its technologies

Elewit markets SAGA, a pioneering and unique market solution because, among other factors, it is based on the experience and knowledge generated over decades by the Red Eléctrica Group. It offers an advanced solution for asset management in the electricity sector that is based on several cutting-edge technologies that complement each other to manage and extract the potential of this knowledge.

Red Eléctrica Group provides connectivity through Hispasat satellites to Sierra de Aralar to improve the conditions of its neighbours and cattle raisers
  • The satellite operator and Elewit, along with the startup Nexmachina, are leading a pilot project contributing to improving safety and sustainability in rural areas and primary activities in Sierra de Aralar by using IoT technology and satellite connectivity
  • This project adds to another project deployed in July dedicated to improving efficiency and safety on a fishing boat in Hondarribia.
  • The satellite ensures a universal deployment of connectivity in areas where there is no land coverage, including maritime environments.

Hispasat, the communication

Red Eléctrica, Elewit and Overstory use machine learning to digitize the vegetation map under electricity power lines
  • They have jointly developed a technological solution that enables them to digitally and automatically identify the type of vegetation growing in 'safety lanes' under high-voltage power lines throughout Spain.
  • The designed solution makes use of machine learning potential to automatically and quickly identify a total of 37 vegetation species groups.

Red Eléctrica, Elewit -the Red Eléctrica

The Red Eléctrica Group and its technology platform, Elewit, join the ‘Spain: Entrepreneurial Nation Strategy’

The Red Eléctrica Group and its technology subsidiary, Elewit, have joined the 'Spain: Entrepreneurial Nation Strategy', a set of 50 measures promoted by the Presidency of the Spanish Government with a 2030 horizon to modernise the production base of the Spanish economy and promote job creation through innovative entrepreneurship.

“We want to become market leaders and provide digital services to corporations to facilitate their 24/7 renewable energy sourcing”

How did you get started?

FlexiDAO was founded in November 2017 as a result of a 1-year research project at UPC University by my colleague Grzegorz Bytniewsky (CTO) and I. Shortly after, Joan Collell (co-founder and COO) joined our team.

Cellnex, Elewit and Lenovo lead the investment round in Nearby Computing, a spin-off of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center and the UPC specialised in Edge Computing and 5G networks

Cellnex Telecom, Lenovo and Elewit (a technology subsidiary of the Red Eléctrica Group) have led the investment round in the Barcelona-based Nearby Computing, start-up, an initiative of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center-Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) and the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), with an investment of approximately €2 million.

Elewit and IBM launch a pioneering solution to accelerate the digitalisation of the management of electricity network assets
  • The two companies have signed an agreement to market SAGA, an Elewit software that will enable electricity transmission and distribution companies to manage the maintenance and renewal of their network assets more efficiently.
  • SAGA is a unique solution in the market because it combines the electricity infrastructure management experience and knowledge of the Red Eléctrica Group, Elewit's parent company, and IBM’s potential and leadership in artificial intelligence and advanced data analysis, using IBM Maximo APM for Energy and Utilities.
