Digitalisation

Blockchain is a distributed network which means everyone in the value chain with access rights can access the information saved in the chain. There are various Blockchain startups developing multiple technical platforms. EEIP is mainly interested in the impact blockchain technology can have in accelerating the energy transition.

European project EMB3Rs is finding new ways to recycle industrial waste heat. The project aims to raise energy efficiency, cut carbon emissions and end fuel poverty. Currently, the only large-scale District Heat Cold (DHC) network in Portugal is operated by Climaespaço.

Nearly 63% of lost energy created for electricity, transportation, industrial, commercial and residential markets. Industrial companies can reduce site energy usage 5% to 15% by using energy management technologies. Smart sensors provide real-time visibility into energy performance so operators can take corrective action.

Electricity is a powerful thing, but it is necessary that the amount of electricity in the grid corresponds with actual consumption needs. The amount of green energy generated in 2019 represented 27 % of the worldwide production and only 13% of the entire production capacity in Slovakia.

The code of the integrated platform and of its modules is now available at GitHub. This means that a large community of potential users will now be able to access it for free. By testing the platforms application in different geographical locations, it can be tailored to the needs of the final users.

A buyer of electricity can be offered a traceable link of power supply from specific source(s) of renewable power. TYMLEZ can offer an API*-box for traceability of energy right from its source all way to the consumer.

The EU is going to be boosted by an investment of almost 1 billion euros. About 84% of this amount should be used to support projects related to electricity and Smart grids. The aim is to transform the traditional power grid into a super-efficient network.

The whole manufacturing sector digital maturity is currently scattered. Some sectors only now entering what is commonly called industry 4.0. Others are still lagging with minimal level of digital capabilities applied to their processes. There are quite significant differences even among global players.

The Horizon-project procuRE has released the Research and Development services tender (TED) It calls for the development of breakthrough solutions to renovate existing buildings to be supplied with 100% renewable supply. The deadline for submission is 22.2.22.
