15minOutreach Update: OpenSTEF presented at TU Delft, KNMI, 
Smart4Res, Entrnce
Frank, Maxime

JM: presented OpenSTEF at TU Delft. Follow-up with joint research centre EC in Petten on simulating (household) loadprofiles, no concrete follow-up. Maxime: RTE also has some contacts at TUDelft → noted action

 FK: presented OpenSTEF to KNMI satellite experts

Maxime presented at Smart4RES Final conference in Paris, 14th of April 2023 - Smart4RES

JB: this morning presentation given at Entrnce; provider of peer2peer energy trading. Possible their customers would be interested in an opensource forecasting toolstack as OpenSTEF

Maxime; perhaps interesting to compare results to meteologica 

15minFuture roadmap update; AI for the Future Energy SystemFrank

alliander-opensource/AIFES: AI for the Future Energy System (github.com)
Some R&D questions relevant for OpenSTEF will be investigated here in a collaboration with universities & TSO


Colleague of Maxime has been working on substation level reactive power forecasting/modelling

Downscaling active regional forecast, or downscaling by postprocessing, or forecasting reactive power directly

5minDesire to combine weather forecasts on-the-fly (as opposed to the current preference list  in openstef-dbc). Location-dependend weights per weather sourceMaximeMaxime will share notebooks; let's refine during Refinement
1minRTE is looking into pyGAMMaximeLet's have a look offline: https://pygam.readthedocs.io/
5minOpenSTEF participates in NREL forecasting challenge - today is the technical webinarFrankMaxime: Interested in participating/helping. Perhaps the operaional model will not sufice. We could organize a brainstorm/workshop on this topic.
5minLF Energy SummitJonas

Frederik will present OpenSTEF

Action:

  • Jonas Checks with Benoit (same action as last time)
  • FK: Ask TUDelft what  they do on forecasting and their collaboration with RTE 
  • MF: asks what they can share on reactive power forecasting
  • FK: inform maxime on forecasting challenge → we could organize a brainstorm
