  • CSO: Connection System Operator - same as DSO (Distributed System Operator) in this context.
  • Final Customer: End customer with flexible connection agreement.
  • AIIDA: Digital Customer Interface (DCI)
  • CEMS: Customer Energy Management System - system of the final customer to manage energy consumption and flexibility.
