his paper describes the Cloud Computing for Smart Energy Management (CC-SEM) project, a research effort focused on building an integrated platform for smart monitoring, controlling, and planning energy consumption and generation in urban scenarios. The project integrates cutting-edge technologies (Big Data analysis, computational intelligence, Internet of Things, High Performance Computing and Cloud Computing), specific hardware for energy monitoring/controlling built within the project and explores their communication. The proposed platform considers the point of view of both citizens and administrators, providing a set of tools for controlling home devices (for end users), planning/simulating scenarios of energy generation (for energy companies and administrators), and shows some advances in communication infrastructure for transmitting the generated data.
