Thesis type EXPERIMENTAL
Description The scope of the thesis is exploring the possibilities that the blockchain and tokenization technologies could bring to the world of smart grid and electric vehicles applications. In particular, the aim is to develop a framework that allows the transaction of tokens between smart vehicles and the grid, and to interact with the vehicle network while the charging procedure is taking place.
The candidate will be required to:
1. Set up an interaction framework to allow the exchange of tokens between a SW wallet and the power grid
2. Interact with the vehicle network (real or simulated) to gather information about the energy flows while charging
3. Cooperate with backend and blockchain domains experts, to ensure the flexibility, safety and reliability of the proposed solution
The thesis will be supported by Concept Engineering Reply (https://www.reply.com/concept-reply), the company within the Reply Group specializing in digitizing and making the physical world smart through the development of IoT solutions applied to products, processes, and services. Concept Engineering relies on a group of experts in the fields of embedded systems (hardware and firmware), edge computing, IoT platforms, cloud computing, user channels, AI, ML, project management and PMO.
The target markets include automotive (and transportation in a broad sense), manufacturing, telco & media, insurance & finance, and medical. Additionally, an essential component of Concept Engineering is research and development, which aims to explore new technological frontiers to generate innovation.
