Sony open source microgrid

Sony Computer Science Laboratories has launched an open-source project intended to make microgrids more resilient using peer-to-peer power distribution. Called Hyphae, Sony CSL is running the initiative with LF Energy, an open-source organization hosted within The Linux Foundation. Microgrids are segments of larger grids. . LF Energy, a Linux Foundation nonprofit seeking to accelerate the energy transition of the world's grids and transportation systems through open source, along with its newest member, Sony Computer Science Laboratories (Sony CSL), a subsidiary of Sony Corporation, announced today Hyphae, a microgrid. . This new microgrid initiative is aimed at improving performance and achieve zero emissions energy resources. By taking a microgrid approach, it is possible to modernize the energy distribution network and prepare for future challenges, both supply and mobility. [pdf]
