If you are a retailer dealing with passive customers who don't respond to price signals — this project developed digital marketplaces and AI analytics that turn these users into active prosumers. This allows you to better balance your grid load and create new service offerings.
Digital Tools to Turn Energy Consumers into Active Market Participants and Prosumers
Imagine if your home's energy system worked like a smart stock portfolio, automatically buying and selling power when it's cheapest. Most people find this too complex or scary to do themselves. This project builds a simple digital bridge that lets regular people easily trade energy and earn money without needing to be tech experts.
What needed solving
Energy consumers are currently passive because energy markets are too complex and digital tools are not user-friendly. This prevents them from making money as prosumers and slows down the green transition.
What was built
A set of digital tools including DLT-enabled marketplaces, AI analytics, and data spaces for secure energy trading and monitoring.
Who needs this
Who can put this to work
If you are a software provider dealing with fragmented energy data and low user trust — this project developed secure data spaces and interoperable digital tools. You can use these to provide a transparent interface for households to manage their energy assets.
If you are a community energy manager dealing with technical barriers to peer-to-peer trading — this project developed DLT-enabled marketplaces. This enables your members to exchange energy locally and share the financial value created.
Quick answers
What is the cost or pricing model for these tools?
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures are not mentioned; the project focuses on developing the technical solutions and business models.
Can this be scaled to an industrial level?
Yes, the project is validating its solutions in 1 Living Lab and 4 large-scale demonstration sites across Greece, Spain, Croatia, and Ireland to ensure scalability.
Who owns the IP and how is licensing handled?
Based on available project data, the specific IP and licensing agreements are not detailed in the provided summary.
How does this handle energy regulations?
The project includes an in-depth analysis of regulatory frameworks across multiple European contexts to ensure the tools work within legal limits.
How is the technology integrated into existing systems?
Integration is achieved through interoperable digital solutions, data spaces, and the use of Digital Twins to mirror physical energy assets.
Who built it
The consortium is heavily industry-driven, with 8 out of 12 partners being SMEs (67% industry ratio). This suggests a strong focus on commercial viability and market deployment rather than purely academic research, with a broad geographic footprint across 8 European countries.
