PEDvolution paves the way for cross-sectoral integration of ever-evolving PEDs through the co-development and implementation of seven interoperable solutions. Its solutions will design, process, optimise and strengthen the PEDs interoperability, business, societal and technological factors addressing and handling PED interaction and integration with inbound and outbound energy resources across energy and non-energy sectors.

NEMO project aims at advancing the state of the art of battery management systems (BMS) by engaging advanced physics-based and data-driven battery models and state estimation techniques. Towards achieving this goal, the consortium tends to provide efficient software and hardware to handle, host, process, and execute these approaches within high-end local processors and cloud computing.

The overall objective of MISSION is to develop and demonstrate key SF6-free switchgear components for the future AC and DC systems to enable emission-free energy transmission in a resilient and sustainable electric grid. The project will develop three key switchgear components that eliminate the use of SF6 and address critical technology gaps for AC and DC grids.

InterPED aims to enable the concept of PEDs via sector coupling, cross-vector integration, demand flexibility and consumer engagement, while improving utilisation of local RES, storage and excess/waste heat (E/WH) sources. InterPED will couple RES, storage and E/WH sources (community assets) available in the pilots with the necessary know-how and ICT expertise to ensure improved operation of PEDs and grid robustness. InterPED intends to engage the consumers via community building, RECs), representing a still largely untapped source of flexibility, while enabling them to play an active role in grid balancing.

Project iDesignRES develops open-source toolboxes for planning and optimizing low and zero-emission energy adoption at regional and European scales. Objectives include user-friendly online tools, high-resolution energy models, and optimised investment strategies. Key outcomes: enhanced renewable energy uptake, improved system planning, and increased stakeholder collaboration for sustainable transitions.

The ICONIC project aims to develop innovative digital and physical tools to achieve fundamental breakthroughs for the integrated control of wind farms, considering the whole physical system at farm, turbine, and component levels, in particular the complex aerodynamic interactions among turbines.

HAVEN’s main objective is to design and demonstrate in relevant operational conditions (TRL 7) a smart, highly modular, scalable, sustainable and safe HESS with advanced cognitive functionalities and optimized high-energy (HE) and high-power (HP) capabilities for multi-service provisioning to support the electrical grid and EV charging infrastructure.

FlexCHESS aims to revolutionising energy storage practices by leveraging advanced technologies such as digital twins, Virtual Energy Storage Systems (VESS), and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT). Its primary objectives include enhancing grid stability through Connected Hybrid Energy Storage Systems (CHESS), increasing profitability for energy storage installations, promoting innovation and competitiveness among SMEs and startups in Europe, validating solutions through pilot demonstrations, evaluating performance and flexibility of CHESS.

EVELIXIA project aims to realise Buildings as Active Utility Nodes (BAUNs), rendering the EU Building stock energy efficient; connected by facilitating a two-way communication between the grid and the occupants, capitalising on flexible technologies;  smart by utilising analytics supported by sensors and controls to co-optimise efficiency, flexibility, and occupant preferences; and flexible by reducing, shifting, or modulating energy use according to occupant needs while considering utility signals.

EURO-TIDES aims to deliver a 9.6 MW tidal energy farm using 2.4 MW Orbital devices by 2027, operating for 15 years. The project seeks to de-risk tidal energy technology, lower the LCOE of Orbital’s technology to below €100/MWh, boost tidal stream availability to over 95%, and enhance bankability and insurability through verified metrics. It will strengthen market confidence, supply chain capacity, and environmental impact knowledge, accelerating commercialisation and supporting a 2 GW+ project pipeline.
