Power and Energy Systems
Research in Power and Energy Systems envisions to support the full and enduring decarbonisation of society, an overarching objective of the EU, which intends to become the first climateneutral continent by 2050. This transformation will only occur by adopting a multidisciplinary strategy that acts on the whole energy value chain, planning and operating it across multiple energy carriers, infrastructures, and users, in an integrated, interconnected, and digitalised energy market.
This strategy will be anchored on the electrification of society, massive integration of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency, requiring the combination of physical representations and data-driven methods for modelling and optimising energy systems, leveraging emerging technologies and interoperability. This requires significant advances in the state-of-the-art and a combination of new computational, hardware and regulatory solutions.
