Real proven solutions to enable active demand and distributed generation flexible integration, through a fully controllable LOW Voltage and medium voltage distribution grid (UPGRID)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Unlike the control and observability put in service in HV/MV, LV networks are still being substantially managed as usual: no visibility of power and voltage or grid components status, poor knowledge of connectivity, manual operation of switches or few tools for worker support. The LV grid characteristics (radial topology, exposition to local disturbances, local accumulation of distributed generati ...

The coordination of national research activities of Member States and Associated States in the field of Ocean Energy (ERA-NET) (OCEANERA-NET)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2017,

Europe’s vast coast line harbours a huge potential resource of ocean energy to be exploited as a renewable electricity source contributing towards the 2020 targets and beyond. The ocean is a complex working environment, relatively little is known about it and it is widely used by others, such as fishing, shipping and recreation. However, the prize for introducing ocean energy generation is high, e ...

Affordable and Adaptable Public Buildings through Energy Efficient Retrofitting (A2PBEER)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Buildings consume about 40% of total final energy in Europe, and those built before 1980 represent 95% of this energy consumption. The low renovation rate of building stock (1% per year) means that boosting energy efficient buildings’ retrofitting is the only way to reach EU’s “20-20-20” targets. The higher impact will be achieved through interventions in non-residential buildings, as their energy ...
