- R&D innovation and technical excellence. The motivation to carry out project e-GOTHAM lies in the envisioned modernization of the power grid to meet the increasing energy demand and minimize its environmental impact. To handle the problem of the power grid modernization, the e-GOTHAM underlying concept is to divide the overall power grid into localized power grids (microgrids), with increased communication capability between producers and consumers that allow to take actions over the elements within the microgrid and operate in cooperation with the overall power grid. To reach this objective, e-GOTHAM will design an open reference architecture and develop a middleware with seamless connectivity that provides the needed communications and decision support tools to optimize and manage residential, tertiary and industrial microgrids. This will facilitate the integration and management of microgrid elements through a large-scale network of embedded systems that take real-time measurements of energy related parameters and actuate dynamically and autonomously over the microgrid to match power demand and supply. In addition, e-GOTHAM will emphasize the challenge of integrating and managing distributed energy production and storage components for sustainability in the energy sector. Table 1 summarizes the e-GOTHAM overall measurable objectives and the supporting S&T objectives are shown in Table 2 Summary of the main e-GOTHAM innovations. To verify and demonstrate the e-GOTHAM concept and objectives, the project will implement the middleware outlined in Figure 6 along with other project outcomes in the depicted residential, tertiary and industrial microgrid pilots within Figure 5 in an incremental and iterative manner as described in Section B.3 S&T approach and work plan.

  • Technology Access Contractor expressly acknowledges that state funds may not be expended in connection with the purchase of an automated information system unless that system meets certain statutory requirements relating to accessibility by persons with visual impairments. Accordingly, Contractor represents and warrants to System Agency that the technology provided to System Agency for purchase (if applicable under this Contract or any related Solicitation) is capable, either by virtue of features included within the technology or because it is readily adaptable by use with other technology, of: • providing equivalent access for effective use by both visual and non-visual means; • presenting information, including prompts used for interactive communications, in formats intended for non-visual use; and • being integrated into networks for obtaining, retrieving, and disseminating information used by individuals who are not blind or visually impaired. For purposes of this Section, the phrase “equivalent access” means a substantially similar ability to communicate with or make use of the technology, either directly by features incorporated within the technology or by other reasonable means such as assistive devices or services which would constitute reasonable accommodations under the Americans With Disabilities Act or similar state or federal laws. Examples of methods by which equivalent access may be provided include, but are not limited to, keyboard alternatives to mouse commands and other means of navigating graphical displays, and customizable display appearance. In accordance with Section 2157.005 of the Texas Government Code, the Technology Access Clause contract provision remains in effect for any contract entered into before September 1, 2006.
