Livrables

Data sets, microdata, etc (1)

State of the Art of TES in Europe

This analysis comprises two parts. The first is the analysis and state of the art of TES solutions existing in the market or at different stages of R&D (plug&play solutions, coupled to the electricity grid o heating system or to renewable energy and/or HVAC&R applications). The second area studies the context and energy policy scenarios in which TES systems shall operate across Europe (Task 2.1).

Documents, reports (2)

ECHO TES system and control concept and approach

This deliverable will define the innovative holistic approach to the TES design. Starting from those suggested in the proposal, definition of the quantitative and qualitative key performance indicators to monitor the project progress and project objectives to overcome the barriers. Definition of the targets in terms of temperature and heating/cooling needs and heat storage density. Preliminary analysis of demo cases demand will be done, defining the ECHO TES to be installed and all the corresponding sensors/meters/devices involved (Task 2.2).

ECHO TSS agent-based simulation implementation final report

This deliverable will define the ECHOTSS concept design and Transaction System Implementation (Task 2.3).

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Communication basics (project logo, website, brochure, poster)

A project visual identity will be created, including an official logo, a brochure and a common layout for presentation-slides and posters, as well supported by the expertise in design of effective communication strategies. A website will be created during the first months and it will be regularly updated with dissemination news and events. Social media will be set up to increase and facilitate the sharing of ECHO related information via virtual communities and networks. An e-Newsletter may be set-up as an active instrument for public distribution of information/data (Task 8.1).
