E-REGIO: SMART COMMUNITY ENERGY MARKETS

Awarded: NOK 79,999

The overarching objective of the E-REGIO project is to uncover a flagship demonstration of a local smart community energy market that is transferable across different market actor types and across different regions in Europe. E-REGIO combines market knowledge and information exchange expertise with technology innovations to create a replicable flexibility management model for local communities. The project will study the combined use of different energy sources to obtain increased flexibility at the local power system level. E-REGIO aims at collecting implementation guidelines and tools, such that regions across Europe can both see the benefits and replicate the market design. E-REGIO - SMART COMMUNITY ENERGY MARKETS project builds on significant key projects like NOBEL, CA-EN-GENCO, Flex-Market, and POWERMATCHER, in which several of the partner institutions have participated in or led. The project develops the tools, guidelines and insights required to successfully analyze, implement, scale and replicate local smart community grids and markets. E-REGIO specifically builds on the business models, ICT-tools and energy management concepts developed within the scope of the existing Empower (local Electricity retail Markets for Prosumer smart grid pOWER services; Project ID: 646476) and further develops and analyse these results with the aim for wide-spread replication and adoption.
