The BRIDGE Initiative at EUW 2017
The European Commission is supporting, via Horizon 2020 – the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever – projects on Smart Grids and Energy Storage. Through innovation these projects have the potential to contribute to a successful, digitally-supported energy transition. To complement the work of each individual project, the European Commission has launched the BRIDGE initiative, to allow the ongoing Horizon 2020 Smart Grid and Energy Storage projects to contribute to creating a common view on cross-cutting issues they encounter that may be obstacles to innovation. So far 22 BRIDGE projects have confirmed their participation.
INVITATION: National Stakeholders Coordination Group SNET – 2nd Meeting | 4th October @ Euopean Utility Week Amsterdam
The National Stakeholders Coordination Group for Smart Networks of the Energy Transition invites interested parties to their meeting on 4th October 2017 at European Utility Week 2017. The NSCG is a sounding board and exchange platform for national R&I stakeholders in the area of smart energy systems and networks, enabling them to contribute actively and in a coordinated way to the goals of the European SET-Plan. At this meeting the current status of the Temporary Working Group on SET-Plan Action 4 as well as the ETIP SNET Roadmap will be introduced. Further best practice examples from national programming, implementation policy, technology platforms and key research facilities will be presented.
In the afternoon session we will discuss with representatives from the ERA-Net SG+ Knowledge Community, from CEER working groups & regulators, the BRIDGE working groups, ETIP SNET Working Groups, EERA Joint Programs and the INTENSYS 4EU project how to increase coordination on European level.
