GEN6 - Greek Pilot: “IPv6 upgrade of Energy Efficiency in School Networks”
GEN6
– The EU-sponsored project GEN6 (Governments ENabled with IPv6) aims at enabling existing eGovernment infrastructure for IPv6: • www.gen6-project.eu
– The GEN6 project sets up complementary and interoperable national and cross-border pilots across different EU States:• IPv6 upgrade of eGoverment Network Infrastructures, e-Identification, Services
and Applications (Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Czech Republic and Turkey).• IPv6 upgrade of Secure Cloud Services (Luxembourg).• IPv6 upgrade of Energy Efficiency in School Networks (Greece).• IPv6 upgrade of Emergency Response Environments (Slovenia).• and more

Pilot
The pilot provides real-time energy efficiency services over IPv6-enabled networks to the local educational community
Energy data are recorded using IPv6 enabled smart meters
Data are transferred over dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6) networks
Web portal presents real time energy consumption data and statistics
Energy data are being aggregated, processed structured and transformed.
50 schools , 11500 students

Energy Metering
18th Panhellenic Conference on Informatics (PCI 2014), Athens
• The smart metering infrastructure consists of a consumption metering device and the i-box
• The i-box is a network device that acts as a data bridge between the power meter and the school’s router
• Both i-box and school router have IPv6 global address

Energy Information System in the cloud
Energy Analytics
18th Panhellenic Conference on Informatics (PCI 2014), Athens
• Energy data are being aggregated, structured and transformed
• Energy data are also correlated with other data (school area, student count, etc.)
• Calculations and data mining algorithms are performed

• Categorize schools based on their energy efficiency using KPIs– Energy consumption (KWh)– Energy consumption comparison
to the previous day (%) – Energy consumption / student /
square meters (Kwh/student/m2)
• Consumption Period:– Daily– Weekly– Monthly– Yearly

Current status
GEN6 - Greek Pilot: “IPv6 upgrade of Energy Efficiency in School Networks”
• IPv6 can become an enabling technology• IPv6 in support of smart grids
– Higher Security– Easier interoperability and fast installation– Bi-directional communication
• IPv6 in support of IoT– Bigger address space, everything connected– Point-to-point control and access tunneling to real time data
• Energy Efficiency in Schools pilot has a huge impact – 50 Greek Schools, with about 11500 students !!!
• Inform the student communities in real time – how much energy is consumed by their actions
• Change students’ behavior towards environmental protection• Reduce energy consumption18th Panhellenic Conference on Informatics (PCI 2014), Athens
