eDREAM at the Energy System and Smart Cities and Communities brokerage event

Last week, our colleagues presented the eDREAM project at the Energy System and Smart Cities and Communities brokerage event. The event was organized by APRE – Agenzia per la Promozione della Ricerca Europea, in Brussels.

The event targeted a wide spectrum of companies, universities and researchers from Europe and beyond to foster the creation of consortia for the upcoming Horizon 2020 Energy Calls.

Vincenzo Croce presented the project vision, objectives and expected impacts.

eDREAM vision is for:

  • a novel near real time Closed Loop optimal blockchain based Demand Response ecosystem,
  • where Distribution System Operators (DSO) and Aggregators cooperate within a novel yet appropriate market framework,
  • with a view to exploit to the largest possible extent the flexibility potential of a large variety of heterogeneous third party stationary and movable load assets,
  • while keeping system reliability within prescribed limits and preserving continuity and security of supply.
