“…T HE Smart Grid (SG) is a two-way cyber-physical system utilizing information to provide safe, secure, reliable, resilient, efficient, and sustainable electricity to end-users [280], [288]. The SG plays nowadays a major role in the integration of the Smart Cities concept by putting into effect the Smart Energy conceptual element: smart electrical energy systems that interconnect utilities and end-users by means of a Smart Infrastructure [276], [287], [292].…”

“…This led the regulators to face a huge task of installing the smart meters with the public agreement over the cost and charges. The Commission for Energy Regulation in Ireland is aiming to install 250,000 smart meters between 2019-2020 with further 50 thousand every year for the next four years till 2024 [5]. Hence, looking at such a big market all the smart meter companies have started to compete for the implementation of their product.…”

“…With growing demands for reliability and efficiency of the grid operation, there has been a necessity to develop a more interactive, interconnected, and dynamic grid model [2]. As a result, smart grids (SGs) improve electricity management by involving advanced two-way communications and operational capabilities, which allow one to deliver electricity in a more efficient, reliable, sustainable, and safer way [3,4]. The SG technology regulates smart devices at consumers' home and buildings with the aim to save energy and decrease costs [5].…”

The Smart Grid (SG) is nowadays an essential part of modern society, providing two-way energy flow and smart services between providers and customers. The main drawback is the SG complexity, with an SG composed of multiple layers, with devices and components that have to communicate, integrate, and cooperate as a unified system. Such complexity brings challenges for ensuring proper reliability, resilience, availability, integration, and security of the overall infrastructure. In this paper, we introduce a new smart grid testing management platform (herein called SGTMP) for executing real-time hardware-in-the-loop SG tests and experiments that can simplify the testing process in the context of interconnected SG devices. We discuss the context of usage, the system architecture, the interactive web-based interface, the provided API, and the integration with co-simulations frameworks to provide virtualized environments for testing. Furthermore, we present one main scenario about the stress-testing of SG devices that can showcase the applicability of the platform.
