“…The development is based on the services defined in [8] as well as three elementary user stories (from the perspective of a smart grid engineer, a smart grid operator, and an iSSN administrator). Based on this information a set of key requirements is derived and a basic software architecture with key components is proposed.…”

“…[8]) we already proposed a generalized greenfield architecture concentrating on the applications that will be executed on smart secondary substations and other entities, covering a wide set of services in the smart grid, smart building, and smart ICT domains. The greenfield architecture was developed using the smart grid architecture model (SGAM) [3].…”

“…Focus of the SCDA project is to enable demand flexibility for energy markets and distribution grids, and to provide plug-and-automate functionality for grid automation and improved distribution grid monitoring [8]. The identified interacting services form an abstract architecture within the SGAM high-level layers, i.e., the Function Layer and the Business Layer (cf.…”

The transition of classical power distribution grids towards actively operated smart grids locates new functionality into intelligent secondary substations. Increased computational power and newly attained communication infrastructure in thousands of secondary substations allow for the distributed realization of sophisticated functions, which were inconceivable a few years ago. These novel functions (e.g., voltage and reactive power control, distributed generation optimization or decentralized market interaction) can primarily be realized by software components operated on powerful automation devices located on secondary substation level. is crucial and has a broad set of requirements. In this paper, we present a flexible and modular software ecosystem for automation devices of substations, which is able to handle these requirements. This ecosystem contains means for high performance data exchange and unification, automatic application provisioning and configuration functions, dependency management, and others. The application of the ecosystem is demonstrated in the context of a field operation example, which has been developed within an Austrian smart grid research project.
