📍The FLOW Project consortium just held our M24 General Assembly Meeting on 11th-12th July, hosted at our partner Eaton's facilities in beautiful Prague, Czech Republic. 🌐Over these two days, project partners dove deep into the current status and future steps for each Work Package, along with the latest progress on our Demo Cases in Copenhagen (DK), Menorca (ES), and Rome (IT). 🔹 DTU - Technical University of Denmark led special sessions on V2G technology. 🔹 EATON shared insights on V2X value proposition, market, and business perspective. 🔹 R2M Spain hosted an Exploitation Workshop, sparking dynamic discussions on Opportunities and Threats for FLOW’s use cases. We also enjoyed a fascinating site visit to EATON's DC microgrid laboratory and a demo presentation of the EATON xComfort Home Assistant, a wireless home automation system. 🏠💡 Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our journey towards V2X innovation and sustainability! 🚗⚡ 🙌 Deep thanks to our consortium partners for their assistance: IREC - Institut de Recerca en Energia de Catalunya / Areti / AVERE - The European Association for Electromobility / BMW Group / DTU - Technical University of Denmark / Eaton / E.DSO / Endesa / Enel Group / Enel X Way / Engineering Group / Heliox / Maynooth University / R2M Spain / Ricerca sul Sistema Energetico - RSE SpA / RWTH Aachen University / Spirii / Technische Universität Chemnitz / Terna SpA / Delft University of Technology / University College Dublin #SmartGrid #EMobility #ElectricVehicles #V2X

🚗🔋How can EV batteries power a sustainable energy system? E.DSO attended the 2nd edition of the V2X Symposium organised by ElaadNL to gain new insights on how #DSOs are gearing up for the electrification of our transport system. Here are our key takeaways: 💡 Well-designed pricing mechanisms, load control approaches and common data-sharing standards are key enables for the uptake of smart charging and #V2X solutions. 💡 Streamlining connection processes, permitting and charging infrastructure planning calls for close cooperation among DSOs and governmental stakeholders. 💡 Grid-friendly e-mobility solutions will require novel approaches in all dimensions of electricity distribution: from flexibility service procurement to customer interaction. 💡 While #V2G can effectively prevent the emergence of grid congestion issues, proper regulation is needed to prepare energy markets for the entry of new V2G players. The potential of V2X can no longer be questioned. Now it’s time to move towards an efficient V2X market implementation. 🔌 Discover all the V2X Symposium outcomes: https://bit.ly/4bLfb7X Tzeni Varfi Selene Liverani Baerte De Brey Arjan Wargers Jan Kůla Stanislav Hes Florentien Benedict
