Imagine having a live, digital mirror of the entire European power grid that updates in real-time. It works like a flight simulator for electricity, allowing operators to test changes or predict failures before they happen. By linking local maps into one giant network, different countries can finally coordinate their energy flow seamlessly.
European energy grids are fragmented and struggle to integrate the rapid increase of renewables. Operators lack a unified, interoperable way to simulate and manage cross-border electricity flows in real-time.
A federated architecture of interoperable Digital Twins and a set of open APIs for energy data exchange.
If you are a grid operator dealing with unstable renewable energy spikes — this project developed a federated ecosystem of Digital Twins that allows you to observe and test the infrastructure in a digital replica to increase resilience.
If you are a distribution company dealing with the electrification of heating and transport — this project developed interoperable tools that connect your local network to the wider European system for better planning.
If you are a software vendor dealing with fragmented data formats across borders — this project developed standardized interfaces and open APIs that enable seamless data exchange between different energy actors.
Based on available project data, no specific pricing or cost structures are mentioned as this is a research and innovation action.
Yes, the project is designed for industrial scale, implementing solutions in large-scale demonstrators across 15 different European countries.
Based on available project data, the project focuses on open APIs and standardized interfaces, but specific licensing terms are not provided.
It integrates via a reference architecture aligned with EU standards and interfaces to the Energy Data Space currently under development.
The project period runs from 2024-01-01 to 2026-12-31, with deliverables planned throughout this window.
The consortium is heavily industry-driven, with 55 industrial partners representing 66% of the group. This high ratio, combined with 18 SMEs and 15 universities across 15 countries, suggests the project is focused on commercial viability and practical deployment rather than theoretical research.
