TOPPLAN offers a graphical analysis and decision support tool for MV/LV networks planners in the Smart Grid context. This is a unique planning software capable to ensure the global optimum of solution taking into account the flexibility of local resources.

The Topplan decision support tool automates network planner tasks thanks to the automated calculation of optimal solutions and the generation of different long-term development/design scenarios for the distribution network according to the input assumptions/parameters.

Topplan also takes into account internal and external flexibilities: production, consumption, storage, voltage regulation, present in the network in order to reduce the cost of infrastructure. This allows it to differentiate itself from its main competitors (NePlan, DPlan, PowerFactory) in terms of performance, namely the reduction in the cost of obtained solutions and the reduction in study time for customers from months to several days. In order to facilitate the work of a planner, the software also contains a module for interaction with geographic information systems and a graphical interface (GUI) for visualizing solutions and comparing different scenarios.
