Our research showcase

The European STRATEGO project helped national and local authorities to develop a policy vision for sustainable heating and cooling plans. Although the demand for heat is twice as high as the demand for electricity, the heating policy is just starting to be developed, while …

STORM tackles energy efficiency at district level. It aims to demonstrate that, thanks to a smart District Heating & Cooling (DHC) networks’ controller, energy savings can reach up to 30%. In that perspective, the project partners will develop a controller based on self …

GeoWatt researches fourth-generation thermal grids for balancing the local demand of groups of users for heat or cold with the available supply.

In the SmarThor project, EnergyVille is developing an ICT platform that can control a fully integrated multi-energy system, using EnergyVille’s own algorithms. We aim for real-life and properly functioning demos in residential areas or industrial sites with an optimally …

The TEMPO project develops technical innovations that help to lower temperatures in district heating networks for a future sustainable energy system. This is realised by 1) innovations to create low temperature (LT) networks for increased network efficiency and integration …

The EU-funded EUniversal project will enable the transformation of the electricity grid by resolving existing limitations in the energy system through the introduction of a universal market enabling interface (UMEI). The project’s aim is a new multi-energy and multi-consumer …

The CoordiNet project will help to demostrate how DSOs and TSOs shall act in a coordinated manner and use the same pool of resources to procure grid services in the most reliable and efficient way through the implementation of large scale “TSO-DSO-Consumer” demonstrations …

MAGNITUDE aims to develop business and market mechanisms as well as supporting coordination tools to provide flexibility to the European electricity system, by increasing and optimizing synergies between electricity, gas and heat systems.

The energy transition will take place in cities. ACCESS empowers cities to coordinate local stakeholders for supporting and investing in the transition of Europe’s energy system. With support from:

The GEOTeCH project develops an innovative drilling concept that is based on dry auger methods, an innovative ground heat exchanger, based on co-axial configuration and spiral fluid flow pathways, allowing to achieve high levels of thermal performance with low pressure loss …

Heating and cooling account for 50% of the EU’s total energy consumption, but at present only 19.1% of it is sourced from renewables, while in 5 countries out of 7 in North-West Europe the same ratio is below 8.2%. This makes heating & cooling an obvious target sector for …

The objective of the GEOENVI project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, is to tackle environmental concerns about deep geothermal energy and work towards harmonized environmental regulations. Environmental risks and impacts will …
