Energy Efficiency with Performance Guarantees in Private and Public Sector (guarantEE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2019,
Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is a proven model for modernizing mostly public buildings by ESCOs with guaranteed energy and cost savings. Nevertheless, a broad roll-out of EPC is being prevented mainly because of two unresolved issues: the split incentives dilemma and the lack of adequately flexible contract models.The guarantEE project will address prevailing barriers to EPC in a team of 1 ...

CleAnweb Gamified Energy Disaggregation (ChArGED)
Start date: Mar 1, 2016, End date: Feb 28, 2019,
ChArGED addresses the energy consumption in public buildings and proposes a framework that aims to facilitate achieving greater energy efficiency and reductions of wasted energy in public buildings. The framework leverages IoT enabled, low-cost devices (NFC or iBeacons) to improve energy disaggregation mechanisms that provide energy use and (consequently) wastages at the device, area and end user ...

Sensing toxicants in Marine waters makes Sense using biosensors (SMS)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
"SMS will deliver a novel automated networked system that will enable real-time in situ monitoring of marine water chemical and ecological status in coastal areas by the detection of a series of contaminants regulated by the MSFD. SMS will design a multi-modular apparatus that will host in a single unit—the Main Box (MB)—a Sampling Module and an Analysis Module. The former will contain sample coll ...

Seasonal-to-decadal climate Prediction for the improvement of European Climate Services (SPECS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) sponsored the Global Framework on Climate Services (GFCS) where the need for actionable climate information for periods from several months up to several years for economic, industrial and political planning has been expressed. However, progress in seasonal forecasting has been slow and decadal forecasting is still incipient. At the same time, new model ...

EUropean Provision Of Regional Impact Assessment on a Seasonal-to-decadal timescale (EUPORIAS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
Recent advances in our understanding and forecasting of climate and climate change have brought us to the point where skilful and useful predictions are being made. These forecasts hold the potential for being of great value for a wide range of decision-makers who are affected by the vagaries of the climate and who would benefit from understanding and better managing climate-related risks. Howeve ...

Climate Local Information in the Mediterranean region: Responding to User Needs (CLIM-RUN)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
"CLIM-RUN aims at developing a protocol for applying new methodologies and improved modeling and downscaling tools for the provision of adequate climate information at regional to local scale that is relevant to and usable by different sectors of society (policymakers, industry, cities, etc.). Differently from current approaches, CLIM-RUN will develop a bottom-up protocol directly involving stakeh ...

Actinide reCycling by SEParation and Transmutation (ACSEPT)
Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
"Actinide recycling by separation and transmutation is considered worldwide and particularly in several European countries as one of the most promising strategies to reduce the inventory of radioactive waste, thus contributing to make nuclear energy sustainable. Consistently with potentially viable recycling strategies, the Collaborative Project ACSEPT will provide a structured R&D framework to de ...
