BRIDGE is a European Commission initiative that brings together projects from Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe with a focus on smart energy systems, in particular Smart Grid, Energy Storage, Islands, and Digitalisation Projects.

Its objective is to foster discussion on the real challenges faced in demonstration projects. BRIDGE aims to identify solutions to overcome obstacles to innovation, share knowledge and deliver recommendations to facilitate the energy transition.

Working groups

The BRIDGE initiative is structured with four permanent Working Groups representing the main areas of interest. Each WG establishes specific objectives (Actions) to be pursued throughout the year. Comprehensive reports and recommendations are crafted for the European Commission, covering diverse themes related to the evolution of the energy sector. The working groups enable collaborative efforts with the aim of articulating findings that influence future policy, technology developments, and the future application of projects results.
