Swissgrid deployed ICONICS GENESIS32 HMI/SCADA and BizViz suites to automate congestion forecasting across the UCTE European grid network. The system uses BridgeWorX workflows to trigger Siemens PTI PSS/E calculations, monitor data quality via OPC File Monitor, and provide operator visualization through GraphWorX. The solution enables configurable automation levels for 24/7 grid security management while integrating with national and international trading systems.
