Motivation & Impact
GENTE’s overarching mission is to create a distributed governance toolkit for local energy communities (LECs) that will advance the green energy transition, support community sustainability and coherence. GENTE’s solutions will exploit advanced digital technology for autonomous energy resource integration within and across LECs. GENTE’s impact is reflected in two new services provided to the DSO demonstrated at the field level, a reduction of up to 30% in community CO2 emissions, user interaction with the platform through living labs (200 users across 2 communities), and an improvement in community energy efficiency of up to 30%.
Role of R2M
R2M contributes with development of AI algorithms for energy optimization in LECs, individual controls based on reduced models, digital twins for buildings and energy models to support predictive controls; definition of business models, exploitation and scalability for the market uptake of the GENTE solutions.
