intEMT\u00ae is a modular and flexible software toolbox for intelligent energy management, developed for the modelling, simulation and optimisation of complex energy systems. It features five core libraries that can be used individually or in combination. This enables tailored solutions ranging from plant-level modelling to comprehensive intelligent energy management. intEMT\u00ae was developed as part of various projects, including GreenICT, and will be used and further refined by Fraunhofer IISB as a platform for new projects in the field of energy management.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The intEMT\u00ae software toolbox provides various modules for the analysis, simulation and optimisation of complex sector-coupled energy systems. The component library was already presented in a previous Techblog article. intEMT\u00ae incorporates the findings from numerous completed and currently ongoing projects, including REMBup, IRES4Ukraine, Flexship, GreenICT, ProEnergie and SEEDs. Each of these projects has helped to identify new requirements and integrate corresponding functionalities into the library. An overview of the currently available modules can be found in Table 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The core modules are supplemented by interfaces to PV and weather databases, as well as additional modules (e.g. data processing and analysis). They thus form the basis for holistic, intelligent energy management and comprehensive system optimisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modules address the key applications. They show how intEMT\u00ae is used to efficiently model, optimise and operate energy systems \u2013 from the development of digital twins and innovative control strategies to bespoke software for specific projects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
