Infrastructure Roadmap for Energy Networks in Europe (IRENE-40)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

The IRENE-40 project will identify strategies for investors and regulators to build a more secure, ecologically sustainable and competitive European electricity system. The strategies will be presented in a roadmap, i.e. a timeline with actions and a description of development stages towards future electricity networks over the coming 40 years. It will provide investment strategies for the indivi ...

Multi-scale data assimilation, advanced wind modeling and forecasting with emphasis to extreme weather situations for a secure large-scale wind power integration (SafeWind)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

The integration of wind generation into power systems is affected by uncertainties in the forecasting of expected power output. Misestimating of meteorological conditions or large forecasting errors (phase errors, near cut-off speeds etc), are very costly for infrastructures (i.e. unexpected loads on turbines) and reduce the value of wind energy for end-users. The state of the art in wind power fo ...

Smart Houses Interacting with Smart Grids to achieve next-generation energy efficiency and sustainability (SmartHouse/SmartGrid)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2011,

Current smart house/energy technologies treat home and working environments as effectively consisting of isolated and passive individual units. This severely limits achieved energy efficiency, as it ignores the potential delivered by homes, offices, and commercial buildings seen as intelligent networked collaborations. Thus, the SmartHouse/SmartGrid project introduces a holistic concept for smart ...
