Entitled "GLACIPTO Hop-On: Bridging the Gap in Energy Management," this proposal underscores a strategic partnership between the GLACIATION project and the Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO). Our shared objective is to enhance the energy sector by integrating intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) devices into vital energy infrastructure, including power plants, pipelines, and wind turbines. Through this collaboration, we aim to improve the efficiency and resilience of the Electrical Power and Energy System (EPES) while minimizing operational redundancies and errors. A key focus of our partnership is the establishment of a unified and sustainable OT/IT ecosystem. This entails effectively merging various datasets, energy consumption insights, and computing capabilities to support advanced analytics. This represents a significant step toward bridging the divide between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT), resulting in a more robust energy system poised for efficiency gains. IPTO's contribution to this initiative is instrumental. As an experienced energy operator, they provide valuable insights and expertise, ensuring that the solutions developed within the GLACIATION project are not only theoretically sound but also practical and effective in real-world energy operations. In return, IPTO gains access to cutting-edge research and technology, aligning with their mission to advance smarter substations and data-driven energy management capabilities. In summary, the "GLACIPTO Hop-On" proposal signifies a joint commitment to improve the energy sector, fostering innovation, operational excellence, and sustainable energy management.
