Greek technology SME building blockchain-based energy trading platforms, digital twins for construction, and citizen engagement tools for the energy transition.
QUE Technologies is a Greek technology SME that develops digital platforms and software solutions for energy flexibility markets, smart grid management, and construction digitization. Their work spans blockchain-based energy trading systems, demand response platforms, and digital twin models for construction workflows. They bring software engineering and platform integration expertise to EU innovation projects, focusing on translating complex energy and building data into actionable tools for end users and market participants.
PARITY (local flexibility markets, prosumer trading), SENDER (consumer engagement and demand response), and ACCEPT (demand flexibility, energy prosumers) all center on flexibility and demand-side management.
PARITY focuses on blockchain-based transactive energy markets with smart contracts, and COGITO applies smart contracts to construction workflow automation.
COGITO develops construction-phase digital twin models integrating BIM, quality control, and workflow automation.
ACCEPT addresses citizens empowerment and consumer engagement, while ECF4CLIM develops competence frameworks using citizen science and learning-by-doing approaches.
PARITY includes smart grid monitoring, DSO congestion management, and integration of EVs (V2G) and power-to-heat systems.
QUE Technologies entered H2020 in 2019 with a strong focus on blockchain-enabled energy trading, smart grid infrastructure, and transactive flexibility markets (PARITY). From 2020 onward, their work broadened into construction digitization through digital twins and BIM (COGITO), while simultaneously deepening their energy focus toward citizen-facing demand response and consumer engagement platforms (SENDER, ACCEPT). Their most recent project (ECF4CLIM, 2021) signals a move toward education and competence-building for sustainability, suggesting an expanding interest beyond pure technology into societal adoption and behavioral change.
QUE is shifting from backend energy infrastructure toward user-facing platforms that engage citizens and building professionals in the energy transition, making them increasingly relevant for projects combining technology with behavioral and social dimensions.
QUE operates exclusively as a project participant, never leading consortia — typical for a technology SME that contributes specialized software components to larger teams. With 72 unique partners across 20 countries from just 5 projects, they work in large, diverse consortia (averaging 14+ partners per project). This broad network suggests they are adaptable integrators comfortable working across different organizational cultures and technical environments.
QUE has built a wide collaborative network of 72 unique partners spanning 20 countries through just 5 projects, indicating they consistently join large international consortia. Their reach is pan-European with no apparent geographic concentration beyond their Greek base.
QUE bridges two domains that rarely overlap in a single SME: energy flexibility markets and construction digitization, both underpinned by blockchain and smart contract expertise. This dual capability makes them particularly valuable for projects at the intersection of smart buildings and smart grids. Their consistent focus on translating complex backend systems into citizen-facing and professional tools positions them as a practical integration partner rather than a purely research-oriented contributor.
