30 Oct 2021 — This solution allows the real-time monitoring of several environmental variables, providing information on temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, UV radiation, luminosity, noise, CO2 and irradiance
UNINOVA installed the first Wi-fi Data Acquisition System at Évora University. This is the first of nine other systems that will be installed at different locations of Évora’s Positive Energy Blocks (PEBs). This solution allows the real-time monitoring of several environmental variables, providing information on temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, UV radiation, luminosity, noise, CO2 and irradiance.
The Wi-fi Data Acquisition Systems will be used to achieve two main goals:
- Provide Évora’s citizens, and other stakeholders, with multiple variables from 10 different locations in order to increase awareness of local environmental conditions, while allowing local authorities to act, based on real-time data, in case some location is not complying with defined environmental specifications.
- Support the operation of other solutions that will be deployed within POCITYF, such as the Flexibility Control Algorithms, that will use the collected variables to predict weather conditions and associated renewable generation profiles.
This marks an important milestone for the project as the System is the first equipment installed in Évora.
