Introduction: This innovation project involves, for the first time, investigation of the feasibility of a data-driven approach to provide multi-time resolution inertia forecasts with high accuracy.

Objectives: This project aims to provide a proof of concept tool for an accurate day-ahead and intra-day inertia forecast with multi-time resolution, that can be potentially used to support the day-ahead frequency response procurement and the real-time system operation.
