<PRESS> Adopted by NEDO "New Energy Venture Technology Innovation Project"

"Renewable energy power generation compatible artificial intelligence
Development of real-time bidding automation technology" Commissioned business started

Optimizer Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Optimizer, Minato-ku, Tokyo) proposed "development of real-time bidding automation technology using artificial intelligence for renewable energy power generation", and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (hereafter, On July 15, 2016, it was selected as NEDO's ``2016 New Energy Venture Technology Innovation Project''.

エネルギー活用社会の実現

■We will conduct research and development of highly real-time demand and power generation prediction technology using machine learning, such as power generation prediction of renewable energy such as solar power.

■We will develop various basic technologies to connect retail electricity companies, power generation companies, and consumers to realize a flexible electricity market that allows active use of renewable energy.

This time, Optimizer and Energy Optimizer Co., Ltd. (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Registered Retail Electricity Utility A-0212, hereinafter referred to as Energy Optimizer) have announced that they are supporting "renewable energy power generation," which is the technological foundation for realizing Japan's energy-utilizing society. We jointly applied to NEDO's ``New Energy Venture Technology Innovation Project (Phase B)'' to develop a real-time bidding automation technology using artificial intelligence.

As stated in the NEDO press release (*1), this proposal was evaluated by NEDO and was adopted as a commissioned project by NEDO on July 15, 2016. It was started.

[Development purpose of this research]

Complete liberalization of the Japanese electricity market started in April 2016. Amid these major changes, a diverse electricity market is being formed, with retail electricity companies entering the market from local governments and other industries.

Optimizer, which provides support to new electric power and retail electric power companies, uses the latest technology such as artificial intelligence to solve problems faced by retail electric power companies of various sizes and characteristics, and to utilize renewable energy power. We have determined that there will be a growing need for support services that enable all businesses to utilize technology.

Therefore, Optimizer, which has been researching artificial intelligence-based prediction technology using machine learning from an early stage in the web marketing field and is actually using it, is a next-generation energy management system that can apply that technology to integratedly manage comprehensive power distribution. Concept of service.

We decided to research and develop the basic technologies necessary to realize this concept, such as realizing highly accurate power demand forecasting technology and developing renewable energy power generation forecasting technology.

Furthermore, by providing it in a cloud-based format that is easy to implement for each business, we aim to commercialize it as a cloud service that can instantly increase the ability of Japanese retail electricity businesses and power generation businesses to utilize the latest technology and speed up their management.
