Robert Tusveld from Alliander gave a great presentation this week about Grid eXchange Fabric. You can now see the video here:
On January 13-15, 2020 in Paris, France, a team of IT specialists at the transmission and distribution level engaged in a collaborative coding event to create open source software for asset monitoring. RTE, Alliander and TenneT worked together through this three-day immersion to learn more about each other’s projects and to gain understanding about joint investment and how to leverage each other’s software talent for faster innovation and uptake.
This is a great opportunity for a free full-day training on working in open source. The event is Feb 6 in Arnhem, Netherlands.
On January 13-15, 2020 in Paris, France, a team of IT specialists at the transmission and distribution level will engage in a collaborative coding event to create open source software for asset monitoring. RTE, Alliander and TenneT will work together through this three-day immersion to learn more about each other’s projects and to gain understanding about joint investment and how to leverage each other’s software talent for faster innovation and uptake. They plan to work with a use case based on LF Energy’s open source projects OperatorFabric, RTE’s Plasma, and Alliander’s OSGP, which was recently transferred into LF Energy and is in the process of changing names. In addition, the team will explore TenneT’s Data Platform for additional functionality.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for the LF Energy Global Summit 2019 in Paris, France. The event was a huge success in bringing together luminaries from the open source and energy communities.
Of course this would not have been possible without generous contributions from our sponsors: CNCF, RTE, Vanderbilt University, the National Renewable Energy Labs, and the FREEDM Center at North Caroline State University.
