Reducing energy consumption and subsequently CO2 emissions is necessary in key sectors of the economy such as energy, buildings and construction, in the public sector, in cities and urban areas. Three major aspects can be considered for reducing energy consumption : i) self-production of renewable energy, ii) reducing energy consumption by ICT infrastructure and by developing less-energy-consuming methods and protocols…
MIGRID
The main aim of this project was to develop a holistic platform that integrates smart microgrids and renewable energy production/storage towards energy efficient buildings. Three major research issues were addressed in order to archive the project’s objectives: i) Renewable energy integration and DR(Demand/Response) variance tracking, ii) Context-awareness and data gathering/processing, and iii) ICT for connecting/networking the different components. Promoting Smart…
