The main goal of RE-EMPOWERED is to develop and demonstrate solutions for the energy transition of local energy systems based on multi-energy microgrids, interconnecting multiple energy vectors. A complete set of solutions for local energy systems has been developed that will be demonstrated in four pilot sites, two European and two Indian. The developed tools include energy management systems, smart meters, power electronic converters, ICT solutions, and energy planning.

REEFLEX is focused on delivering higher participation of energy consumers in demand side flexibility markets and demonstrating niches of opportunities for new services provided by SMEs and start-ups, seeing a growing number of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to the network. DERs come from an ample variety of energy carriers and sectors, accompanied by the introduction of new digitalized assets.

The project focuses on enhancing energy autonomy and efficiency in urban areas through the establishment of energy islands empowered by citizen communities. Key objectives include maximizing renewable energy integration, fostering community engagement, and enhancing economic viability. Measurable outcomes include increased energy autonomy levels, community participation rates, economic attractiveness of renewable systems, and replicability potential across Europe.

The main objective of RESCHOOL is to catalyse the creation, growth and management of energy communities by leveraging the engagement of participants, facilitating the cooperation in collaborative initiatives within communities, and co-producing tools for the efficient management of energy and trading at individual and aggregated levels.

The RESONANCE project is developing a software framework for plug-and-play solutions to manage demand-side flexibility for distributed and small-scale assets. Its goal is to simplify the customisation of Customer Energy Manager (CEM) solutions for consumers and prosumers across various sectors. Additionally, it aims to make harnessing flexibility from distributed and small-scale assets in homes, buildings, and spaces cost-efficient.

The ROBINSON project focuses on decarbonising industrialised islands by integrating renewable energy sources, storage technologies, and innovative energy management systems. Key objectives include developing a flexible Energy Management System (EMS), optimising renewable energy integration, biomass and wastewater valorisation, and validating innovative technologies. Measurable outcomes include reduced CO2 emissions, improved energy reliability, and new business opportunities. Research areas encompass energy system optimisation, renewable integration, and hydrogen technology advancement, aligning with European sustainability and decarbonisation goals.
