Objective: This topic aims at creating or replicating innovative local or regional “integrated home renovation services”. Building refurbishment can be particularly cumbersome in private housing and there are many barriers discouraging homeowners from taking the investment decision. Based on good practices and successful models across the EU and in line with the “Renovation Wave” initiative […]
HORIZON EUROPE: Integrating and combining energy systems to a cost-optimised and flexible system
Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to most of the following expected outcomes: Demonstrated benefits of sector integration in different geographic, climate and economic conditions. Improved planning of integration of power, heat, gas, industry with a production site(s) of renewable energy. Optimised operations of coupled networks (e.g. electricity vs. heating). Validated tools and […]
LIFE Programme: Facing the increase in cooling demand of buildings in the coming years
Objective: Taking into account that almost 50% of Union’s final energy consumption is used for heating and cooling, of which 80% is used in buildings modernising the heating and cooling systems of buildings is essential to decarbonise the EU building stock, to deploy local renewable energy potential and to reduce the EU’s dependence on imported fossil […]
HORIZON EUROPE: Physics and aerodynamics of atmospheric flow of wind for power production
Expected Outcome: As wind turbines grow bigger and taller, the blade tips are increasing more affected by turbulent atmospheric flow features, while airborne wind energy systems operate at even higher altitudes. This zone of the atmosphere currently lays between the current numeric models at the microscale and the mesoscale. Further, the data integration of the […]
