COMMUNITAS
The European Commission’s “Clean Energy for all Europeans” package (CEP) has introduced concepts for Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) and Citizen Energy Communities (CECs), aiming to promote energy citizenship and active participation in energy markets. COMMUNITAS aims to overcome barriers and streamline these concepts, delivering a Knowledge Base and innovative tools using technologies like IoT, Blockchain, and Cloud Computing. The project also involves citizens in Social and Policy Labs to incorporate their feedback and needs into core developments, positioning them at the center of energy markets.
BLOW
Project BLOW aims at unlocking the Black Sea fLoating Offshore Wind potential, by demonstrating a disruptive cost-efficient floating integrative unit design optimised for low and medium wind speed areas. BLOW will implement a 5 MW demonstrator in the Black Sea and will pave the way to industrial mass production and to the deployment of floating offshore wind farms.
Blades2Build
The general scope of the proposed project is to evaluate and demonstrate in large scale the possibility of recycling or resource recovery from blades and similar waste materials in a large consortium with some of Europe's key players in areas of importance for the project.
BEST-Storage
BEST-Storage aims to develop both long- and short-term high-energy density storage solutions. These include a thermo-chemical and loss-free storage technology for seasonal storage, two phase-change materials slurry concepts, and vacuum-insulated water storage, for cold and warm applications to shift peak load demands. The project will integrate these storage solutions into smart-building energy management systems to reduce operating costs for short-term applications.
BEFLEXIBLE
BEFLEXIBLE project aims to overcome existing limitations in the electricity markets by applying versatile solutions that allow grids to adapt to upcoming scenarios. Thus, it will promote mechanisms that provide benefits to all actors in the energy market (from market operators to end users), responding to all types of consumer needs. BEFLEXIBLE’s objective is to increase the flexibility of the energy system, improve cooperation between Distribution System Operators (DSOs) and Transmission System Operators (TSOs) and facilitate the participation of all energy-related stakeholders.
AGISTIN
The AGISTIN project addresses critical challenges for industrial grid users, grid operators, renewable energy developers, and storage manufacturers. It aims to reduce pressure on grid connection capacity and minimise the need for grid reinforcement, benefiting all stakeholders. By leveraging DC coupling, the project enables industrial grid users to economically integrate significantly more on-site renewables compared to traditional approaches.
AdvanSiC
The AdvanSiC project aims to develop cost-effective High-Voltage Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs for Medium-Voltage DC (MVDC) grid applications. It focuses on reducing epitaxy costs, designing efficient 3.3 kV SiC MOSFET chips, and optimising HV power module development. The aim is to minimise HV SiC device cost by advancing novel design structures and process optimisation.
Thumbs Up
The THUMBS UP project aims to develop thermal energy storage (TES) solutions for EU buildings to enhance energy efficiency and grid flexibility. It includes technology development, integration, validation, and modeling. Objectives: TES technology development, integration with building systems, validation in diverse sites, and replication studies. Measurable outcomes: replicability, socio-economic benefits, environmental contributions, market transformation, and policy promotion for TES adoption.
SINNOGENES
SINNOGENES aims to transform energy storage for a greener future. It focuses on developing and showcasing the SINNO energy toolkit, a versatile suite of technologies like batteries, flywheels, and power-to-gas systems. These solutions will be applied across various sectors, boosting reliance on renewables and reducing carbon emissions. Additionally, SINNOGENES integrates these innovations into real-world scenarios, enhancing energy efficiency, resilience, and flexibility. Engaging diverse sectors, it offers practical, scalable, and economically viable models for energy storage adoption, crucial for sustainable energy systems.
DriVe2X
DRIVE2X aims to accelerate the shift to mass electromobility deployment through innovative smart charging techniques and technological advancements in bidirectional charging solutions. A set of low-cost bidirectional charger units are tested and validated under different use cases in eight demonstrators, presenting different operational settings (buildings, homes, and directly at the grid level), contributing to accelerate the wide uptake of V2X (Vehicle-to-everything) technology.
