The ISO 15118-20 standard, published in April 2022, extends the ISO 15118-2 standard released in 2014. In addition to improving the functionalities covered by ISO 15118-2 (AC and DC charging, Plug and Charge, Smart Charging), ISO 15118-20 expands the range of possibilities and use cases by specifying bidirectional, wireless and pantograph charging. As a [...]
Introduction Since its first public specification in 2015 and its continuous development by the G3-PLC Alliance, the G3-PLC technology has been broadly deployed all over the world for smart metering and other applications. One of the feedbacks from large roll-out was that, while connectivity to 99% of devices was possible, achieving consistent connectivity to [...]
Augmented reality allows us to enrich reality with virtual elements. Information is superimposed, and 3D objects complete the reality to obtain an augmented version. This technology has applications in many different fields, such as video games, museum visits and industrial processes. The communication between electric vehicles and charging stations is part of Trialog's expertise, [...]
Based on the European projects GIFT and MAESHA Geographical islands are particularly relevant in the study of energy management, as they are one of the very few areas where the electricity system almost fully operates as a closed-loop system. Owing to few or no interactions with external grids that would facilitate network operation and [...]
The second birthday of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) unit of Trialog is approaching! This is an ideal occasion to reflect on the activities of the past two years. The CSR actions are important as a complement to our company’s activities, to ensure they are coherent. Furthermore, through electrical mobility, smart grids and health [...]
With the rapidly increasing number of Internet of Things (IoT) applications in the energy domain created by billions of devices and the resulting data, the integration of sensors and actuators for effective automation is a fundamental requirement for maintaining Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication. The key elements for a successful smart-energy system are the compliance and [...]
In recent years, there has been an increasing number of sensors embedded in smart devices (e.g. smartphones, smartwatches and smart glasses). These smart devices are becoming increasingly connected to the internet, and the data is sent to the Internet to create the “Internet of Things” (IoT) applications (also known as the “Web of Things”). [...]
I – Smart buildings as a flexibility source to support power grids The energy transition implies a change in the way we operate the electrical system. The increasing connection of distributed renewable energy sources requires the electricity grid to manage unpredictable and non-dispatchable sources of energy. Furthermore, the electrification of fields such as transport [...]
This article is part of Trialog blog series on IoT and Interoperability, started in September 2020 with a first article focusing on “IoT Systems and Interoperability”. Trialog’s vision is that modern cities are becoming "green and sustainable" once effective and optimized energy management of resources, gathering, and integration of data from smart energy and [...]
Launched in 2017, the SCA project (Secure Cooperative Autonomous) has just been completed. It brought together 8 industrial partners (Atos-IDnomic, Oppida, Groupe PSA, Groupe Renault, Transdev, Trialog, Valeo and YoGoKo) and two academic partners (Institut Mines-Télécom - TélécomParis and IRT SystemX) around the issue of the security of localised communications between connected and autonomous [...]
