Events

Last days to register to the European Technology & Innovation Platform Smart Network for Energy Transition (ETIP SNET) for its 14th Regional Workshop as part of its mission of guiding Research and Innovation activities to support Europe’s energy transition.

DO NOT MISS the opportunity to join the 14th ETIP SNET Regional Workshop on Wednesday 1st of June (11:30 am – 4 pm CEST) that will take place in Brussels in hybrid format (Physical participation is highly advised).

The overall purpose of this event is to learn more about national and regional research, development and innovation (RDI) and how and if they are aligned to the RDI activities on the EU level and, specifically, to the ones identified in the ETIP SNET Implementation Plan 2022-2025 and that will be the base of the High Levell Use Cases in the updated ETIP SNET Roadmap, expected at the end of 2022.

To that end, the ETIP SNET invited the representatives of national and regional funding and support programmes from Central Europe (Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Denmark, The Netherlands, Poland, and Slovakia) that will meet and discuss together with the EC and European Associations about RDI priorities and next funding programmes the day before the Workshop.

The outcomes of this meeting will be reported during the Regional Workshop on 1st June and will be followed by three-panel sessions where EU and national projects will be presented along with the ETIP SNET’s High-Level Use Cases (HLUCs) to identify the gaps – if any – and the needs of stakeholders.

The Workshop will provide a unique opportunity to learn about R&I projects around Europe and contribute to the identification of R&I gaps, challenges and priorities.

New technologies and solutions need to be deployed to reach the ambitious targets set by National and European policies and prevent impacts on the security of supply. Electric mobility and flexibility for more resilient energy systems represent two crucial building blocks in future energy systems and they share some common challenges for energy systems dealing with the integration of increasing distributed resources which, at the same time, can provide flexibility services to ensure the resilience of an increasingly electrified system.

Based on the recent ETIP SNET WG1 publication on “E-mobility development and impact on European electricity grids”, the webinar will reflect about the EV charging solutions and regulations to be adopted in cooperation with the power system, transport sector, and decision makers. Subsequently, the participants will look at how flexibility can support resilience of the power system, presenting the results of the collaboration between ETIP SNET and ISGAN. The discussion will be consolidated view and input for R&D activities and innovation projects on power system flexibility beneficial for resilience, in particular on how to design and exploit flexibility sources and mechanisms also for increasing the resilience of the overall power system.
