Lightning Talk: LF Energy SEAPATH: Building an Open Source Ecosystem for the...
summary
SEAPATH claims a production-ready, industrial-grade open source platform for virtualized digital substations with V1 release (January 2025) and production deployments in France. It virtualizes protection and automation apps (not a new hypervisor), runs on industrial servers, and remains hardware-agnostic virtualization platform while uniting utilities (Alliander, National Grid, RTE, Elia), major vendors (Genova/Schneider/ABB/Siemens), hardware makers and startups. Plans include a Kubernetes‑style conformance program and RTE public RFPs requiring SEAPATH compatibility.
