Abstract
Energy Lab 2.0 is designed as a large experimental test and simulation field for multi-scale and multi-mode energy system facilities at KIT. A Smart Energy System Simulation and Control Center (SEnSSiCC) is the core component in terms of information and communication technology. The present article introduces basic concepts for the Control, Monitoring and Visualization Center (CMVC) of SEnSSiCC. The CMVC bundles all communication channels and real facilities, simulation environments, and data repositories into an integrated research environment for planning, control, monitoring, analyzing and visualization of smart grids and their components, and furthermore for evaluating future concepts for smart grid utility operation. Special emphasis is placed on the distributed computing operating system environment setup for the CMVC, the intended use of Big Data technologies, the polyglot approach for data management and analysis, and first concepts for implementing a hybrid agent based simulation environment. Also, the usage of web technologies and microservices are considered as key aspects of the overall architecture.
