Digi-Label will design and deliver digital tools and solutions to compliment the EU energy label.

The OPTIGRID project aims to miniaturise an intelligent sensor for high and medium voltage lines, with predictive maintenance and fault detection functionalities.

The BestRES project aims to develop innovative business models for integration of renewable energy sources by aggregating distributed generation such as wind, PV, biogas, biomass, hydro, Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and combining this with demand side management and energy storage.

The aim of the HyStack project is to develop a complementary test bench for characterising stacks in operation at power levels of up to 10 kW.

Le projet MOSAIC vise à dépasser l'objectif du plan stratégique pour les technologies énergétiques (SET) de la Commission européenne de produire de l'électricité CSP à un coût inférieur à 0,10 €/kWh.

The MESB (Microenergy Storage in Buildings) project aims to parameterise and assess the feasibility of small-scale energy storage in buildings.

Development of e-commerce solutions for electricity balancing and redistribution in Europe.

Intégration de l’électrodialyse au procédé de biométhanisation, comme outil d’amélioration et flexibilité de la production de biogaz, d’électricité et de biocarburants

Big Data assisted Monitoring of Energy Consumption and Habits in Households : measuring real-life energy efficiency of households and life habits that prejudice the economy of natural resources

Développement d'une interface intelligente pour contrôler dynamiquement l'HVAC des bâtiments et valoriser leur flexibilité sur les marchés de l'électricité, optimisant ainsi la consommation d'énergie dans un contexte de réseaux électriques intelligents.

TECR studies the interaction between the consumer and the network

SusPIRE project assimilates in its conception the sustainable energy use challenge described in the European SETPLAN and in SPIRE road map. It addresses its efforts to energy intensive industries and within this segment market to energy recovery from residual heat streams.

BuildHEAT addresses the heating sector by: - elaborating systemic packages for the deep rehabilitation of residential buildings - developing innovative technologies facilitating the implementation of the renovation measures - developing financial tools enabling large public and private investments - involving the construction chain from the very beginning and all along the building life cycle.

The project aims at developing (1) more efficient and safe shallow geothermal systems and the reduction of the installation costs, and (2) a decision support system and other design tools covering the geological aspects, feasibility and economic evaluations based on different plant set-up options, selection, design, installation, commissioning and operation of low enthalpy geothermal systems.

REScoop MECISE is a European project that mobilises citizens and municipalities in the transition to a more sustainable and decentralised energy system.
