Project idea information
Priority
Better connected and energy responsible Danube region - Improve framework conditions for innovation - Strengthen transnational water management and flood risk prevention - Improve energy security and energy efficiency - Improve institutional capacities to tackle major societal challenges
Project Idea Promoter
(name of the institution)University of Zagreb Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing
Needs and challenges
(Needs, main problems or challenges to be addressed)Current practices in the Danube Region with respect to promoting integration of energy-efficiency measures and renewable energy sources are not followed by adequate interactions of these two aspects that would enable cost-optimal operation of the building
Objectives
(main and specific objectives to be achieved)The main objective of the project is to provide a technology and legislative set-up for city-wide energy management of public infrastructures in DR. Enabling optimal interoperation of RE&EE measures and alleviating grid barriers will boost take-up of RE&E
Main results and core outputs
The core outputs of the project are: (i) modular energy management platform (EMP) -- software modules --, (ii) validated in several pilots by intersecting technology/policy setups of all DR countries -- validation case studies and reports -- with (iii) re
Main foreseen activities
WP1. Analysis and impacting technology and regulatory framework for city-wide energy management in the Danube Region
WP2. Integration of energy management system on the building side
WP3. Integration of energy management system on the grid-side
WP4. En
Innovative character of the project idea
All three mentioned challenges (smart building, smart grid, smart city) are coordinatively tackled on legislative and technology side.
The project develops an innovative modular grid-building cross-spanning solution encompassing levels of energy consump
