Artelys Crystal - Version City -Decision Support Software for Territorial Energy Planning
At the time of the energy transition, local decision-makers are confronted with new issues of territorial planning, the energy dimension becoming a key factor in decision-making. Acting on energy consumption, reducing CO2 emissions, ensuring a coordinated development of distribution networks, enhancing the potential of local renewable production, are all challenges to be met in a context of increasing decentralization.
With the help of Artelys Crystal City, Grenoble Alpes Métropole was able to analyze the impact of action scenarios and bring out a concrete and concerted plan to reach ambitious goals by 2030.
