LumiMerse · Governed workflow automation

Auditable engineering workflows, with an engineer in the loop.

LumiMerse is Velon's agentic workflow engine for regulated power-system teams — TSOs, DNOs, data-centre energy teams and large developers. It turns briefs, network data, PSCAD, PowerFactory and Python runs, compliance checks and evidence-pack generation into structured, review-gated workflows — every output passing an engineer review gate before it leaves the system.

01 · What it is

An agentic workflow engine for auditable engineering tasks.

Engineering compliance work is repetitive, evidence-heavy and easy to get wrong under time pressure: the same data preparation, the same solver runs, the same checks against the same requirements, assembled by hand into a report a reviewer can trust. LumiMerse structures that work. It orchestrates the tools an engineer already uses — PSCAD/EMTDC, PowerFactory and Python — and the steps between them, so a study runs the same way every time and produces a traceable record of what was done.

It is deliberately not autonomous. LumiMerse prepares, runs and checks; an engineer reviews and signs off. Nothing reaches a client or a regulator without passing a review gate. Every run is logged, every input is versioned, and every output traces back to the requirement it addresses — which is what makes the result defensible when a reviewer asks how it was produced.

02 · Workflow lifecycle

Six stages, one review-gated pipeline.

The same shape underlies most engineering compliance work. LumiMerse makes each stage explicit, repeatable and recorded.

Brief & scope

Capture the requirement, the applicable standard and the operating envelope to be covered.

Data ingest & validation

Pull network models and inputs; check completeness and consistency before anything runs.

Solver orchestration

Drive PSCAD, PowerFactory and Python through the defined cases — reproducibly, not by hand.

Compliance checks

Test outputs against the relevant grid-code and standard criteria, flagging margins and failures.

Engineer review gate

A qualified engineer reviews, adjusts and signs off. No output proceeds without this step.

Mandatory

Evidence pack & handover

Assemble the traceable, well-labelled report and dataset, ready for submission and audit.

03 · Capabilities

What LumiMerse does.

01

Tool orchestration

Coordinates PSCAD/EMTDC, PowerFactory and Python through a defined sequence of study steps.

02

Data validation

Checks inputs and network models for completeness and consistency before a run begins.

03

Compliance checking

Evaluates results against grid-code and standard criteria, surfacing margins and failures.

04

Evidence-pack generation

Assembles labelled, captioned reports and appendices traceable back to each requirement.

05

Engineer review gates

Built-in sign-off points where a qualified engineer must review before work proceeds.

06

Audit trail

Records inputs, versions, runs and decisions so any result can be reconstructed later.

07

Reproducibility

Versioned inputs and parameters mean a study re-runs identically and results are repeatable.

08

Deployment options

Run in Velon's environment, in your cloud tenancy, or on-premises behind your controls.

In practice · Demonstrators

LumiMerse, applied.

Two demonstrators built on Velon's own work — the engine doing real engineering, not describing it.

Demonstrator 01 · Multi-agent workflow

SAGE — Smart Agent for Grid Reinforcement

A LumiMerse workflow that augments the tools planners already trust — DIgSILENT PowerFactory and Python — and automates the cognitive labour around network reinforcement: deciding what to study, interpreting results, screening compliance and drafting the report. It does not replace the solver. It replaces the week of manual work around it.

Automates

Study setup & execution

Builds the scenarios and runs the batch — no manual model wrangling.

Automates

Results triage

Finds, ranks and explains the violations that actually matter.

Automates

Compliance & reporting

Screens against your criteria and drafts the report.

You stay in control

Human-in-the-loop

Every step is reviewed and approved by your engineers.

Just one example of what LumiMerse can do. Tell us the manual process that slows your team down — we build the workflow that removes it.

Demonstrator 02 · Distributed stability

Stability Potential

An evidence base, a working model and a procurement-ready scorecard for stability services delivered from below 132 kV — turning the invisible distributed fleet into a qualified source of system strength and inertia for the transmission operator.

The largest unmodelled stability resource sits below 132 kV.

System strength and inertia are procured almost entirely from synchronous plant on the transmission network. Below 132 kV, tens of gigawatts of distributed energy resources are effectively invisible to the stability toolkit — capable of providing the service, but never qualified to.

05 · Security & governance

Built to be governed, not just useful.

For regulated teams, how a result is produced matters as much as the result. Governance is designed in, not bolted on.

01

Engineer-in-the-loop

Review gates require a qualified engineer to approve before any output is released. LumiMerse assists; it does not decide.

02

Audit trail

Every input, version, run and approval is logged, so any deliverable can be reconstructed and defended.

03

Tool governance

The tools a workflow may invoke, and the actions it may take, are explicitly scoped and constrained.

04

Access control

Role-based access governs who can configure workflows, run them, and approve outputs.

05

Deployment options

Velon-hosted, your cloud tenancy, or on-premises — chosen to fit your security and data requirements.

06

Customer data handling

Customer data is used only for the agreed workflows, under terms you set. LumiMerse holds no operator data unless you supply it.

What LumiMerse does not do
  • No autonomous grid control or operational decision-making
  • No access to confidential operator data unless you supply it
  • No claim to certifications or accreditations Velon does not hold
  • No ownership of PSCAD — Velon is a specialist user, not the vendor
