Energy Activated Citizens and Data-Driven Energy-Secure Communities for a Consumer-Centric Energy System
Rapid developments in the energy sector resulting from the need to fulfil green deal goals have led to increased access for energy-activated citizens and energy-secure cross-sector communities. In turn, this leads to increased access and management as well as improved efficiency. The EU-funded ENPOWER project is supporting this push towards a citizen-centric energy system. The project will combine state-of-the-art ICTs with social-behavioural dimensions, sharing economy and value stacking business models to offer several crucial tools, frameworks and services. These include but are not limited to a social science framework, critical AI algorithms and tools for energy community planning.
