Ongoing

HVDC-Wise HVDC-Wise project explores concepts and proposes solutions to foster the development of large HVDC based transmission grid infrastructures, able to bring benefits in terms of resilience and reliability to the existing electrical system and capable of integrating the forthcoming large amount of renewable energy https://hvdc-wise.eu/

HYPERRIDE HYPERRIDE contributes to the field implementation of DC and hybrid AC/DC grids. Grid planning and operation guidelines are developed, and available sizing tools adapted for DC. TRL of enabling technologies will be raised focused on MVDC breakers, sensors and DC measurement units to provide field ready devices for grid automation and protection. Automation algorithms are created, validated and transferred to demo sites. This involves concepts and solutions for cyber security and fault mitigation to avoid cascading effects. Demonstrations in Aachen (DE), Lausanne (CH), Terni (IT) will showcase above-mentioned technologies. Benefits of the solutions are evaluated, especially the integration potential of renewables. Business models are created for products, services and applications. www.hyperride.eu

HYSTORE The mission of HYSTORE is to develop and validate four innovative sets of TES concepts, based on PCM and TCM solutions. The four novel concepts attain different applications on heating/cooling (H/C), DHW configurations, and further set up optimal conditions for the provision of hybrid – meaning energy and power services thanks to the development of a smart aggregator and an open-source multi-service platform https://hystore.eu/

i-STENTORE The i-STENTORE project aims to introduce innovative energy storage technologies, propose hybrid energy storage systems, and create an umbrella framework for assessing efficient energy storage solutions for various applications, with a focus on decentralization of the power sector, co-optimization of integrated assets, and strengthening the European storage value chain http://istentore.eu/

IANOS IANOS aims to demonstrate and replicate the symbiotic operation of various energy streams in EU islands, unlocking their great potential to act as Lighthouses of pan-European decarbonization. Homepage

iFLEX The project aims at developing the iFLEX Assistant, a novel software agent that acts between consumer(s), and their energy systems, various stakeholders and external systems helping them to achieve mutual benefits through local energy management and Demand Response.
