AIA Group has over ten years' experience in solutions for the energy sector.
In the field of electrical transmission and distribution, its innovative state-of-the-art solution based on AGORA (Advanced
Grid Observation Reliable Algorithms) allows intelligent real-time grid electric management. |
 |
 |
The system provides tools for grid observation, simulation of grid operations and the best strategies for grid
recovery in the event of power cuts, allowing the system to continue even in quasi voltage-collapse situations.
This solution is now employed on an international scale, and AIA Group's subsidiary company in the United States ( EleQuant ) has installed it for firms such as the Pacific Gas & Electric Company
(PG&E).
Our forecasting and optimisation tools also solve major problems for energy producers and distributors: prediction of
electricity consumption forecasts, with excellent results and optimisation of hydraulic planning. At the present time our tools
handle over 60% of hydraulic production in Spain.
We also, we offer solutions allowing electricity companies to operate with ease in electricity markets which have
been liberalised, and in others which are about to be liberalised. Our BUHO (OWL) and HADA (FAIRY) solutions provide monitoring and
analysis of electrical power, and also extract the following knowledge: analysis of the various strategic parameters, optimisation
of responses to the various offers, design of equilibria ... Similarly, our specialists consultants and courses offer cancellation
tools, solutions to complex problems, and the most sophisticated finance market technology applied to the energy sector.

Advanced Grid Observation Reliable Algorithms
|
|
AGORA acts as a monitoring system which lets you know precisely what is going on inside your network, at all
times, instantly and accurately. It is a restoration tool so effective it can cut recovery time in half. It is a planning tool
which brings you closer to real-world answers than you ever thought possible.

Sophia
|
|
The Hydroelectric Planning and Optimisation System provides assistance with the planning of hydroelectric production.
Once the plans have been defined, the system also provides the strategy for optimum execution.

Load Forecast
|
|
The Load Forecast product is based on the association of two powerful techniques: symbolic forecasting and neural
networks. This association allows the forecast result to reflect non-linear effects in the time series and to take account of a
priori knowledge either in the user or expert domain or built into these series.

BUHO
|
|
Buho is an Intelligent Observation System whose goal is the extraction of relevant information form the requests of
the Electric Market.
Buho uses Artificial Intelligence techniques to recognise patterns in the Electric Market results. The strategic
aspects of the market are captured using a model based in Game Theory. The system also uses as conceptual representation of
anomalous situations based on expert knowledge, from the point of view of operation and management of the Electric System.

Hada
|
|
The Energy Market Intelligent Modelling System (EMIMS) has been developed to provide Computerised Information Support
for the bidding generation in the Electrical Energy Market. The System uses Artificial Intelligence techniques blended with
classical mathematics: Forecasting, Symbolic Context Information analysis, Dynamic Programming, Optimisation, together with
economic theories: Game Theory etc.
The Hada's system goal is the optimal design of offering strategies in the Electric Market. The system uses
Artificial Intelligence techniques, Game Theory and information extracted by BUHO to get the parameters defining the market and the
different agents involved. The game theoretical model enables the computation of expected equilibriums and generates the
corresponding values of price and objective market share, for each market and the offspring structure for each agent.
