INFUSE (ERA-NET Enerdigit Call 2023) - Contract 61/2024

INFUSE project revolves around the development of a comprehensive data integration framework within a cross-platform software ecosystem, making use of the FIWARE open-source APIs and specific data formats capable of seamlessly integrating diverse data sources with varying reporting rates (including PMUs, smart meters and other contextual sensors). Additionally, the project will focus on an intelligent edge-computing engine for processing and correlating information from various sources using data analytics enabling real-time anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, and energy control, contributing to enhanced energy transfer in emerging (low inertia) power grids. Integration with real-time digital simulation tools using data from the crossplatform showcasing developmental opportunities across various demonstration sites and scenarios, based on The Project developed digital twins (on heterogeneous hardware-in-the-loop simulation platforms: e.g. Typhoon HIL, RTDS).

The goal of the project is to design and development of a physics-informed AI solution for optimized control of energy communities on a cross domain level, by including social, policy, legal and regulatory aspects, without neglecting the technical feasibility by considering the smart grid as well as cross-sector prosumers with EVs, heating and cooling and renewable generation.

Another objective of the project is to achieve impact by providing the customers and investors with high time resolution power profiles of consumption and production for different use cases. This will assist future investments, market decisions and provides a tailor-made solution that increase efficiency.

CARDEA is a group (many of us HR Professionals) with a proven track record in the delivery of initiatives to support research staff within our own universities and organisations. Under the framework provided by the HR Excellence in Research initiative we work to improve policy and practice, recruitment and working conditions, and the training and development of research staff. Through CARDEA we will now leverage our experience to introduce policy and career practice guidelines for Research Managers in the European Research Area.

The overall objective of CARDEA is to enable the Professionalisation of Research Management as a valued career choice within the European Research AreaThrough CARDEA we will propose clear and identified role competencies, progression pathways, standards for benchmarked and indexed salaries and access to appropriate skills development for Research Managers at all stages of their careers. 

The main goal of the project is to promote the innovation in education. Innovation in education is of high relevance in today’s society because it improves the life environment for billions of people. Development of more efficient higher education and energy, on the other hand, combines two pressing needs of humanity. The project aims at connecting Europe and Partner Countries in facing this challenge by creating, sharing, exploring and valorising knowledge, expertise and smart vision using high tech, human touch as well as global collaboration.
