Demand Response in Industrial Production (DRIP)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Background Electricity generation and the electricity grids are facing a radical challenge. On the one hand, scarce fossil resources as well as CO2 emission targets mean that an increasing share of energy generation must come from renewable energy sources (RES); on the other hand, the largely decentralised and highly intermittent electricity generated by ...

Integrated European Industrial Risk Reduction System (IRIS)

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

Current practices in risk assessment and management for industrial systems are characterized by its methodical diversity and fragmented approaches. In retrospect these risk and safety paradigms resulted from diverse industries driven and limited by available knowledge and technologies. A change based on industry driven R&D work is needed. At present the European Industry recognised their obligatio ...

Open Public Extended Network metering (OPEN meter)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

New smart multi-metering or multi-functional Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is capable of creating value for energy consumers, network operators, metering operators and retailers. AMI will provide better services for customers in various ways: not only by more accurate metering and billing, but also by easing the supplier switching process and also by facilitating demand response to price ...

CO2 Enhanced Separation and Recovery (CESAR)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2011,

"CESAR aims for a breakthrough in the development of low-cost post-combustion CO2 capture technology to provide economically feasible solutions for both new power plants and retrofit of existing power plants which are responsible for the majority of all anthropogenic CO2 emissions (worldwide, approx. 5,000 power plants emit around 11 GtCO2/year). CESAR focuses on post-combustion as it is the only ...

Improvement of Nat Efficiency by Superconducting current limiter for 110kV (INES-110)

Start date: Nov 15, 2006, End date: Oct 15, 2009,

Background One way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions produced by the energy sector would be to minimise energy losses in the distribution systems. A transformer including a switchgear is currently used to couple two 110 kV network sub zones. These transformers lead to energy losses and contain hazardous oils. Objectiv ...
