Intelligent decision support for Renewable Energy Providers

Renewable Energy Sources (RES) have evolved into an international success story. Even if, based on the policy and legislative support from the European Commission and national governments, the number of Renewable Energy Providers (REP) has increased substantially, RES are far from being readily usable. Numerous factors limit their efficiency. This paper discusses the emergence of supporting technologies that increase the performance of REP and present as a solution a cloud-based intelligent decision support and control system for low voltage power grids with distributed generation from RES.
