The project proposes effective energy management using a resilient and practical ecosystem that is user-centric and market-driven. The project involves a range of specialised stakeholders, including advanced technology actors, manufacturers, providers and energy users. Via seven pilots, they will showcase an effective digital market for ensuring energy-efficiency at reduced costs that is beneficial to end-users.

The project aimed to develop Local Flexibility Markets & Smart Energy Grids through peer-to-peer and decentralized intelligence in a human-centric manner. PARITY addressed the “structural inertia” of DGs by delivering a transactive flexibility framework that will increase durability and efficiency of the electrical grid, while simultaneously enabling the adoption of more RES through enhanced real-time control of DER Flexibility combined with novel Active Network Management functionalities.

PLATOON develops a COSMAG Compliant reference Platform with flexible capabilities in interoperability, to deal with a wide spectrum and heterogenous data sources, formats, interfaces and enable data exchange between platforms; data governance & security to answer multiple data owners and providers, digital sovereignty challenges; and data analytics toolbox and edge computing for data processing and analysis in batch and real time.

RENAISSANCE aims at demonstrating highly replicable design and management approaches for integrated local energy systems, that achieve high participation of local consumers (15-20%), exceed at local level EU targets for renewable energy sources (37-80%) while decreasing the energy price for community members (10-15% below current market prices). The methodology and each pilot will cover key energy vectors (electricity, heat, transport), involve different actors (households, SMEs, institutions), and valorise flexibility services within and between communities, and with DSOs.

SYNERGY introduces a novel framework and reference big data architecture that leverages data, primary or secondarily related to the electricity domain. The framework references significant data architecture that leverages data, primary or secondarily related to the electricity domain, coming from diverse sources.

TDX-ASSIST will develop three novel aspects of ICT tools and techniques: scalability – ability to deal with new users and increasingly larger volumes of information and data; security – protection against external threats and attacks; and interoperability –information exchange and communications based on existing and emerging international smart grid ICT standards.

The project enhances cooperation and coordination among the Transmission System Operators of SEE in order to support the integration of the electricity markets in the region, whilst promoting higher penetration of clean energies. TRINITY aims to improve the current situation and facilitate the interconnection of South-Eastern electricity markets – among themselves and within the current Multi Regional Coupling area (MRC).
