(EN) | The project exploits, upgrades and customizes the system architecture developed in the research project HESTIA project, which is currently used for energy tracking and energy balancing in the 3 pilots (Berchidda, Italy ; Palaiseau, France ; Voorhout, The Netherland). Hence, the energy tracking platform implemented in the action 2.5 will consider the business logic of HESTIA platform and will represent a necessary and crosscutting requirement for the full functioning of RECs within the MED project. Furthermore, the platform will test -as simulation - a preliminary form of demand response (platform advanced function), to enable potential inter-consumers and/or inter-communities trading/sharing of sustainable energy virtual-net-metering. Such functionalities will be inspired to HESTIA User-personalized services (consumer digital twin and non-intrusive data analytics) to process aggregated energy resource flexibility at the demand-side, in terms of cumulative energy consumption, distributed energy generation and storage, to better manage the disparity between energy demand, RES availability and grid requirement. The synergies are assured by the presence of SINLOC, that will put the system design & logic available to the developer of the project’s platform.

Τhis result is extremely useful for the design of a REC in a marginalized neighborhood (where people at energy poverty live) in proximity of a port area, with limited access to open spaces.
- In addition, based on measured profiles of local loads and internal generation systems, the simulations of this project demonstrated that the deployment of microgrids within a more open and flexible electrical system is possible and convenient

(FR) | In the proposition of a new Hinterland Renewables Communities Action Plan for energy-positive & climate resilient planning paradigm around the concept of Renewable Energy Communities, the Unit Models of ETU are considered and actualized in the shift from rural dimension (ETU) to urban dimension (EnerCmed). In specific, the Terms of Reference composing the Action Plan will be conceptually inspired to the (a) Unit Model for cooperation & commitment between key actors and key policy frameworks related to the analysis of the interaction among householders and different form of local energy circulation (b) UM for energy community technical design (verification of technical parameters addressing REC/CER: availability of RES endogenous potential, grid system, integration of ECs into territorial/landscape regulations) (c) UM to build a legal, administrative and management structure.
