.alkitech Enterprise !ntegration B Energy Efficiency solution is based on its E2"+!7 Energy 3ptimization platform. E2"+!7 software% through a number of domain modules enables intelligent operations of power system and ensures optimization of business and operational obDectives under real-time constraints.Electrical =tilities in todayEs world face variety of business and operational challenges% which are dynamic in nature. "he magnitude and comple0ity of most of these problems cannot be solved through thumb rule calculations by an e0perienced operator. "hey are un-manageable by traditional control and monitoring applications either. +ecent decades have witnessed much advancement in the field of advanced process control% artificial intelligence and optimization technologies. A variety of algorithms including classical and heuristic based techni)ues is available to model and predict non-linear and discrete behaviors and optimize comple0 obDective functions. Eltri0 is a platform in which these advanced algorithms are used to solve and optimize various domain level problems in power system. Eltri0 functions in providing e0pert level decision support guidance to the operators% to that of solving comple0 optimization problems online. !n certain cases this further gets e0tended to the level of closed loop control function for steering the system through a re)uired traDectory for achieving the goals specified in the obDective function while not violating the constraints. Eltri0 covers the decision support re)uirements within #eneration% "ransmission and 'istribution sub domains through a number of domain modules. Each of these domain modules leverages the capabilities of Eltri0 as a platform and provides an overall benefit.
