REACT is a 4-year research project funded by the EU's Horizon 2020 Programme. Its objective is to achieve island energy independence through renewable energy generation and storage, a demand response platform, and promoting user engagement in a local energy community; REACT is developing a technical and business model to demonstrate that these technologies can bring economic benefits, contribute to the decarbonisation of local energy systems, reduce GHG emissions, and improve environmental air quality.

 

RDIUP and TROYA ÇEVRE DERNEĞİ from VPP4ISLANDS 🏝️ have respectively presented #policy_recommendations 💡 and #energy_communities 🔋. This replication board is organized by GIFT project on 6th June 2023 where 10 sisters projects are involved as: GIFT H2020VPP4ISLANDSH2020 MAESHAISLANDER ProjectIANOS H2020 projectROBINSON - H2020REACT Project EUSOCLIMPACTH2020 INSULAE ProjectNESOI - New Energy Solutions Optimised for Islands

BRIDGE is a European Commission initiative which unites Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe Smart Grid, Energy Storage, Islands, and Digitalisation Projects. VPP4SILANDS is participating in almost Working Groups.

 

VPP4ISLANDS 🏝️ with sister projects has created a joint White Paper on replication to present and share key results, best practices and lessons learnt.

 

📢  VPP4ISLANDS 🏝️ contributed and participated in a joint replication board on 18th September 2024 organized by 12 sister EU projects to share lessons learnt and findings from pilots. Follow our outcomes. #islands #decarbonization#Innovation#energy #H2020

This video presents VPP4ISLANDS project 💪 and focuses mainly on the turkish leading Islands “Gökçeada” (UEDAS) that aims to test and validate the aggregation of grid flexibility ⚡

The Municipality of #Grado is a key Partner (Follower Island) of the Horizon 2020 project and is working for the definition, replication and experimentation of Virtual Energy Communities.

Already at #M10, after research; partnerships and efforts 👏arrives our first #General #Assembly💪 of the #H2020 🇪🇺#VPP4Islands🏝 project chaired by #RICCIO Julia and #Seifeddine BEN ELGHALI from #AMU
