Description

Description (EN):

E-Harbours aims to create a lasting change towards sustainable energy logistics for NSR harbour cities. It will set innovative energy standards to create a transformation of the energy network in harbour areas. Show cases will provide examples for the NSR, guided by a European expert platform. By this the project will implement EU energy policies, develop innovative solutions and allow economic growth. Smart energy networks and electric mobility are both vital aspects and strongly related to each other. The partnership consists of key organizations to create a change: public authorities, municipal harbour/energy companies and national knowledge centres from the NSR.

Achievements (EN):

E-Harbours aimed to create a lasting change towards sustainable energy logistics for North Sea Region harbour cities. It set innovative energy standards to create a transformation of the energy network in harbour areas. Showcases provided examples for the North Sea Region, guided by a European expert platform. By doing this, the project implemented EU energy policies, developed innovative solutions and allowed economic growth. Innovation in different fields and an integrated approach were strongly needed. Smart energy networks and electric mobility were both vital aspects and strongly related to each other. The partnership consisted of key organizations to create a change: public authorities, municipal harbour/energy companies and national knowledge centres from the North Sea Region.

Expected Results (EN):

Implement 7 innovative show cases in the participating harbour areas, they range from show casing the transition of a large conventional harbour into a climate smart role model to the testing of a virtual power plant in a real time situation; • Create a Virtual Power Plant (VPP): transnational methodology for optimal integration of renewable energy sources in a highly energy intensive harbour cities; • Create a framework (technical, economical, organizational) for large scale implementation of E-Harbours in the NSR.
