Project description
Creating an improved energy ecosystem
Power grids in a number of European Member States usually feature high prices and a high dependence on carbon-based energy sources, raising the alarm regarding both energy poverty and climate change. The EU-funded OPENTUNITY project aims to change this by creating a flexible and adaptable energy ecosystem that reduces interoperability barriers and focuses on standards that help reduce emissions and costs. To achieve its goals, the project will utilise novel methodologies and software modules to support grid operators, market actors and prosumers. The proposed ecosystem will use technologies that support better grid management and boost grid flexibility allowing the grid to match future changes and to stay updated with the help of grid players.
Objective
OPENTUNITY’s mission is to create a flexibility ecosystem reducing interoperability barriers and favouring the use of standards in order to decarbonize EU grids and put the end-user in the spotlight. Grid operators, prosumers, market actors etc. will be supported by OPENTUNITY via innovative methodologies backed by advanced, interoperable software modules, in order to provide them with new features and services related to: 1) Technologies to boost flexibility in prosumer’s environment; 2) Technologies for grid operators to better manage grid operations). OPENTUNITY will also evolve, adapt and integrate a Federated Data Space infrastructure in which actors from different fields will share services and find synergies among them in order to create a reliable energy system in which different verticals (electromobility, gas, OEM etc.) will be able to seamlessly collaborate with each other.
OPENTUNITY will be demonstrated in 4 different countries (Greece, Slovenia, Spain and Switzerland), benefitting 26.852 citizens and reducing 91,22 MtCO2eq GHG emissions and energy poverty by 30% by 2032.
