Flexible Public Lighting in The Netherlands with an open and independent Smart City Platform
• Energy Network Operator; gas and electricity distributor to large parts of the Netherlands
• Facilitate an open energy market
• Innovation (living labs, smart grids projects)
• Exploring future & new markets
About us
2
We enable (open) innovation in public spaces and public infrastructures by using open source technology and open standards.
Smart City drivers
• Safety
• Mobility
• Sustainability
• Energy consumption
• Livability
• Participation
3
A Smart City uses data and information in a smart way resulting in city processes and services
becoming smarter and more efficient and contributing to major city themes
open data available
Integration City Services
Energy & Telecom Infra
Connectivity Apps <> Devices
The past: closed systems and platform silo’s
Most current smart city or smart lighting systems:
• Obsolete or proprietary technology
• Closed for open development
• (almost) not using TRULY open standards and technology
• Lock-in on specific device, software or communication infrastructure
4
Upcoming: open platforms and ecosystems
5
“Internet technologies, open source and open standards have changed our lives but it haven’t changed our cities, yet.”
New business models
Exponential growth
Crowd and Sharing economy
Open platforms are key
Open source and open standards lead to endless possibilities
Our experience in Smart City projects
Experience
• Product/vendor/technology driven versus
• Closed and proprietary silo systems versus
• Hard to achieve positive business cases versus
• …. versus

Way forward
• (user) feedback & flexible future changes
• Open innovation, -source, -standards
• Collaborate, share and replicate resources
• …

“Open innovation, open source, open standards and open data can accelerate the development and implementation of large scale solutions
within Smart City infrastructures and Smart City projects”.

FlexOVL, a new and flexible switching system of public lighting delivers more control for municipalities . Liander (DSO) introduces this first solution powered by the Open Smart Grid Platform.
• Setup switching schemes
• Organize devices in groups
• Ad hoc switching
• Monitor actual status
• Monitor energy usage
• Basic reporting functions
Based on an open and independent Smart City Platform
Also integrated with:

Global City Teams Challenge, Washington DC
1 June 2015: One of the 6 innovative smart city projects (with Amsterdam Smart City)
12
Open Smart Grid Platform (OSGP)
Properties:
• Generic design ensures usage on a broader basis
• Open Source approach prevents vendor lock-in
• State of the art security (European Network for Cyber Security)
• Fully scalable (up and down)
• Stimulates open innovation by using open standards and open source technology
• Multiple devices and communication protocols are supported
• Independent of (cloud) hosting infrastructure
Services being developed
• Flexible Switching of Public Lighting (roll out)
• Smart Meter Reading
• Smart substation
• Energy Demand and Supply management
13
Open, generic, scalable and independent IoT platform which enables various public service objects to be easily controlled and monitored with any application and with any communication infrastructure.
Winner Dutch Environmental ICT Award 2014
14
Award for most innovative, sustainable and appealing ICT-product.
Because of the open character of the platform, third parties are able to develop new and innovative applications. The concrete and large scale (IoT) implementation combined with the potential energy savings make the Open Smart Grid Platform a true winner of the Dutch ICT Environmental Award 2014

How we can help Smart Cities
• Control and monitor smart objects in urban spaces and public infrastructures independently
• Enable your ‘City as a platform' with an open, generic, scalable and independent urban infrastructure
• Collaborate with peer (city) organizations who own or manage (large scale) infrastructures
• Enable (open) innovation and future development within an open source ecosystem
• Develop open standards for broad adoption and implementation in smart city applications
• Become less dependent of specific suppliers and / or proprietary technology
(or your smart lighting project)

Open source as a strategy
17
We make use of an open source approach, which has proven to be a powerful mechanism that can lead to world-wide, large-scale innovations and implementations.
Open innovation, open source, open standards and open data can accelerate the development and implementation of large scale solutions within Smart City infrastructures and (future) Smart City projects.
“ ”
• Stimulate development of the market and ecosystem
• More use of smart applications
• Reduce IT complexity
• No vendor lock-in on supplier or technology
Our open source approach
• Community of users develop the software
• Good-quality documentation and product information gives users the opportunity to work independently with the software
• Open Source license: Apache 2.0
• Online support for users, by users
• Independent foundation that stimulates the use and development of the software
• Commercial company that offers services, such as consulting and implementation, based on the open source software
18
The foundation
Two entities
19
www.osg-platform.com www.smartsocietyservices.com
• Keeping the platform and documentation available
• Maintenance and development
• Support for users and developers
• Licenses and legal conditions
• Marketing and promotion
• Software as a Service
• Development of new applications upon request
• Connecting to data communication networks
• Development and implementation of open protocols
• Training, education and consulting
Smart Society Services
That operate independent from each other
