Proposal(s) title:
  • Bridging the gap between EU R&I ecosystem and worldwide standardisation on Smart Energy
Proposal(s) topic:

Smart Grids and Smart Metering

Impact on SMEs:

Impact on SMEs (2nd Open Call)
My activities in IEC SyC Smart Energy and ISO/IEC JTC1/SC41 allow me to be aware of on-going standards development in the field of IoT and Smart Energy, which is crucial for a SME providing consulting and expertise on innovation.
Additionally, when worldwide standards are better aligned with the EU R&I ecosystem, it makes it easier for European SMEs to make business at worldwide level (less specific development). Finally, when the EU R&I ecosystem, including SMEs, is better aware of the standards, its players can develop solutions which are already aligned to worldwide practices.

Impact on society:

Impact on society (2nd Open Call)
My work supports the development of smart energy grids, allowing to integrate a high share of renewable energy sources and to support new usages such as transports electrification (e-mobility). Smart energy grids also enable a more efficient operation of the energy systems (i.e. less energy losses) and foster an active commitment of grid users (i.e. consumers or prosumers) towards the energy transition.

Impact on SMEs (5th Open Call)
Firstly, my company Trialog is a European SME, which is impacted by my contribution. In particular, my activities in IEC SyC Smart Energy and ISO/IEC JTC1/SC41 allow me to be aware of on-going standards development in the field of IoT and Smart Energy, which is crucial for a company providing consulting and expertise on innovation. Also, my activities in the EU R&I ecosystem allow me to share experience based on our R&I projects and to learn from the experience of other projects and actors.
Secondly, the European SMEs from the smart energy sector, in particular those involved in EU R&I projects. Especially, worldwide standards are better aligned with the EU R&I ecosystem, making it easier for European SMEs to make business at worldwide level.
